Work published

Nowhere yet! Except pieces that I've rewritten for authors but those don't really count!

Travel philosophy

Live like the locals so you can get a real sense for the place you are visiting!

Craziest place

Rome, Italy ended up being very crazy between the sight seeing and the nightlife.

Bizarre experience

In Spain, I was tricked into eating a bull's testicle. It was at the moment I realized I wasn't in NY anymore!

Advice

Be open to everything and try new things! If you don't, you'll look back on your trip and regret not bungee jumping or eating that bug. It's all about building up the memories, not buying the souvenirs!

Dream destination

Japan. I am hoping to go there soon!

Traveled before

I've been to a few places in Spain (Madrid, Barcelona, Alicante, Lastres, Gijón). I also went to: Paris, France; London, England; Vienna, Austria; Rome & Venice, Italy; Dublin & Sligo, Ireland.

Going next

Costa Rica at the end of June! I'm very excited!
