I left behind a corporate job and now life’s a lot more fun. I was bitten by the travel bug at 2-years old when my family moved to Europe. Today, I’m a published travel writer with articles in Parachute, TravelMedia, Pink Pangea and Travel Post Monthly. It’s the best job I’ve ever had. I’ve visited most of Europe, 47 of the 50 United States, Canada, the Caribbean, Mexico, and South America. Next on my agenda: destination unknown? And, Portugal, still haven’t been there yet. Right now, I spend part of the year in Bogota, Colombia. I’m a nomad and travel on my own, though I don’t speak the language or know anyone at my destination. I know I’ll always have an abundance of new friends by the time I pack my bags again. My address book is now filled with names, addresses and phone numbers from places I have been. A member of Travel Media, The Association of Travel Writers, The International Travel Writers and Photographers Alliance (ITWPA), Travel Massive and Women Traveling South America Writers Group. Inquisitive, curious, and adventurous, I’m an explorer at heart. That will be me: asking questions and wandering purposefully.
