WRITER & EDITOR

TRAVEL WRITING CLIPS

Ireland

Traveling to Doonbeg is like stepping back in time to when we were entirely dependent on the land, knew our neighbors and life was simply simple. If you hire a car, don’t be surprised if your driver stops in the middle of the road to heckle a passing first-cousin.

The Best Foods to Try in Phoenix

The Phoenix-metro area is massive and skews young, with residents anxious to get out-and-about to sample the city’s culinary offerings. With a large population of transplants from other parts of the country, there’s so much more to savor than just chips and salsa.

Morocco

There are many ways in which to see the World – you simply need to find what works best for you. For this Moroccan jaunt, I used a travel company, which caters to couples or groups who want an out-of-the-box experience, but with the comfort of expert guidance.
