Introducing...(#2)

This post is a little late, but I couldn't resist the desire to crow about this little baby, on which I had the privilege of working:


This magazine, out now, contains 100 unique and off-the-beaten-path destinations from around the world, many of which are places that few tourists know to go (my favorite: Coomera Falls in Australia's Gold Coast Hinterland). Each location is accompanied by useful information about what makes the place worth visiting, and how you can get yourself there. This magazine is for people who love being adventurers rather than tourists; for those who want to experience the unique and untrodden. I loved working on this project, and I hope you'll love it, too!

Introducing...

...that Secret Thing I've been working on since September, and which I finally get to brag about:



This year, I have had the fortunate privilege of working as project editor on two special editions of National Geographic. Like many adventurous, book-loving kids before me, I long dreamed of working for Nat Geo. And now I can say that, after months of late nights and hard work, that vision is a dream realized.

I'm very proud of the finished product, created and crafted by a wonderful editorial team from whom I learned so much. It is a compilation of 100 of the world's most beautiful places, from the tourmaline waters of the Great Barrier Reef and the jagged cliffs of Ireland to the sun-drenched walls of the Grand Canyon and the glistening ice sheets of Antarctica. This book is an inspiration for avid travelers, and makes a wonderful present for kids with wanderlust or adults with an affinity for beautiful photos. They  are available at bookstores and most newsstands and retailers (I've found them at Barnes & Noble, CVS, and many grocery stores). You can also purchase one here.
