Travel,

it's my passion.

I’ve been writing about travel, the experience and the industry, for over 40 years. Most of my current work has been for newspapers in the U.S. and overseas, but it has also appeared in magazines such as Travel and Leisure (), Conde Nast Traveler (, Men’s Health, and Real Simple. I’m a frequent contributor to the Los Angeles Times and the Tribune Publishing Company. I am also the founder emeritus of Airfarewatchdog.com, now operated by TripAdvisor.
