hi and new assignments!
Hi!
I hope you’re all having a lovely May! I’m writing this from Spain where I’ve spent the last week on a perfect trip to Spain! We started in Barcelona, then went to Ibiza, and now we are in Madrid! For a while, the trip was uncertain, but it all came together last minute by some miracle and truly felt like it was meant to be. I haven’t been working on this trip (a little here, a little there) and needed it SO badly. Exploring new (and old) places in Spain has reinvigorated my love for travel, and while I’ll be covering this trip for work, it was exactly what I needed. It was also great to spend some time with my mom and sister. You can see more on my Instagram and soon on TikTok, too!
As you know, I’m *always* compiling more international travel pitches and planning trips to new destinations. Currently planning my calendar for June, July, and onward, and would love to connect! Do send over any hotel news, destination news, hotel openings, opps, etc. In general, I am also always looking for beauty news (launches, exclusives, celebrity interviews) and international travel news (as mentioned above) to pitch to my editors. My niche for travel is international travel, luxury travel, and transportation (airlines, cruises, and trains), and they typically intersect with my work and what I cover.
Before I dive into work: if anyone works in PR that handles creating advertisements, I’d love to chat! My sister is looking into the field and would love to shadow/intern for someone to see if it’s what she wants to pursue. Would appreciate any leads.
