Hi + new timely assignments!
Hi!
Hope you’re week is going well! I’m in Palo Alto this week checking out the new Graduate Hotel. It’s super cute with the only rooftop hangout spot in the area. Another cool tidbit? Every single piece of decor reflects either Stanford or California in some way! Since my visit here, I’m intrigued to check out other properties from the brand to see how they all differ.
On a semi-related note, would love for you to follow along on socials! I feel like that’s where I’ve connected with so many of you. Here’s my TikTok and IG. I post mostly about my travels, so it’s WAY easier to stay in the loop.
As you know, I’m *always* compiling more international travel pitches and planning trips to new destinations. Currently planning my calendar for June and onward. 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 within my work and what I cover.
Let’s dive into what I’m working on!
