I haven’t been everywhere yet, but it is on my list. For as long as I’ve been in journalism, I’ve been writing about travel. I’ve reported from cities including Reykjavik, Edinburgh, St. Petersburg, Sydney and across southern Africa.
I am the founder of Travel with Meena and a regular contributor to Travel + Leisure. My travel stories have also appeared in The Wall Street Journal, Departures, TripSavvy, and the Chicago Tribune. I am three states and one continent away from my goal of visiting all 50 U.S. states and all seven continents.
