Prompt by lumineaux:
Find a map, be it Google, an atlas, or Flickr World Map (advisable; you can then search the map for photos in the area), pick a spot at random or because you like the sound of the name, and then with little to no research on the place itself, write about it.
I actually think this would be more interesting if you did research the place. Or maybe write one story before researching it and one story after.
