Joined Atlas Obscura in 2026

Born in Brooklyn, I moved overseas in 2012 where I later became International Living’s first Portugal Correspondent, contributing monthly to the magazine, speaking biannually at travel conferences, and writing both Escape to Portugal and a 14-part video series, Portugal 101. I've also written two memoirs: Rabbit Trail: How a Former Playboy Bunny Found Her Way, and A Movable Marriage. After more than a decade living in Portugal and acquiring residency, I spent several years in central Sweden before settling into the foothills of the Pyrenees in Spanish Basque Country.
