Getting Around is a weekly travel newsletter attempting to break us all of our ovine way of traveling. I believe strongly that people would have a lot more fun traveling if they ignored a lot of what they come across on social media. Every week I help readers navigate underrated destinations, exciting hotels, call out the over-hyped, and try to address the travel issues we’re all wondering about.

I’m the former travel editor of the award-winning The Daily Beast.

You can follow me on Instagram here, and Twitter here.
