The biggest non-secret you’ll hear on this site today: I love travel. I always have. Second biggest: I love writing. Always have. And yet, the thought that I could combine the two into a career only occurred to me about 14 years ago.
Since then I’ve had the pleasure of bumping into many of you in various corners of the world, and even more of you online. I’m so grateful that you often choose to check in on my adventures and ideas with your valuable time. And I’m always jazzed when I hear how many of you have started adventures of your own as a result.
Yay you!
I document my travel adventures in so many different ways and places that I’m realizing that many of you may not even realize that something I’ve written that might be helpful is already out there. So this week, I thought I’d share some of the pieces currently making their way around the web, social, newsprint and more. I’d love for you to take a peek at my stuff, but also take a moment and look at what others are doing in these incredible spaces. I pick the places I contribute to very carefully. I’m proud to be associated with all of these:
