Huckleberry Travel
After many years as an entertainment industry labor lawyer, I started Huckleberry Travel along with David, with the idea that we could share our passion for authentic, destination-immersive travel with others. I’ve visited every continent, and more than fifty countries, and I count myself lucky to have had “once-in-a-lifetime” travel experiences many times in my lifetime, so far. My first trip overseas was as a high school exchange student in Germany. Since then, I’ve made it my personal mission to see as much of the world as possible, and to help others do the same!
I’m certified as a Verified Travel Advisor by ASTA (the American Society of Travel Advisors), and I comment frequently in industry trade publications about emerging travel trends in the industry.
