Sometimes I stumble upon things on the internet, sometimes I search specific things in the surroundings. I'm a history buff and I love exploring old bunkers, so I search online for bunkers in the vincinity of, let's say, Avranches. Some destinations are chosen because of their convenient location. I can't travel to the south of France in one long drive, so I need two stops that are approximately 1/3 and 2/3 on the way. I check Google Maps for interesting geography, and do some research about towns/cities in the vincinity. This applies to other road trips as well: I found one of my favorite hotels ever this way (Kasbah Tebi in Aït Behaddou, Morocco: a UNESCO-protected kasbah without electricity or running water.) For the city trips I browse forums (TripAdvisor, Zoover) and 'things to do in...'-lists.
