Interview

Why did you become a journalist?

I started my travel blog as a way to document my 7+ years living abroad in Budapest, and my writing evolved from there.

What advice can you offer to aspiring journalists?

Welcome rejection!

When's the best time to pitch you?

I love receiving pitches in the middle of the month so that I can build the upcoming month's calendar.

What's your favorite drink?

Freshly squeezed orange juice or Earl Grey tea steeped within an inch of its life.
