History, culture, and architecture have always struck my fancy. So it is no wonder that travel- a means to see, feel, hear, taste, and experience these things- is so dear to my heart.
Although I’ve been successful in my career (my day job, or, the “thing I do other than write”), my wanderlust has always been strong and I knew that if I wanted to see the world…really, truly see it, I would need to get creative. There would not be enough vacations in my lifetime to see all I wanted to see.
I started learning ways to monopolize on business trips. If I was going to Romania, and my plane ticket was cheaper if I took an overnight in Vienna, then it was a win/win for everyone. Where I saw opportunities to see something new, I seized them. And along the way, I learned some tricks for seeing more with less time, and getting creative with the time you do have.
These experiences have inspired me to write travel guides so that others who share the desire to see as much of the world as possible in what short amount of time we have on this planet, might find them and take something useful away on their own voyages.
So far, I’ve been to 17 countries, and most US states. I have written, or will be writing, guides for most of these countries, and some of the states as well.
I’ve replicated this post as its own page called Travel Guides, which can be accessed by the main page navigation at the side and top.

...and then there was Sarah 
Wow! Such a lots of places. I look forward to reading them.
Thanks Rosie!
Ah!! Envy envy! Wish I could travel as much! 🙂
They key is just to do so creatively! I’m willing to sacrifice long stays in places so I can see more places. Of course, you miss out on some things that way, so it balances out 🙂
That’s a stack of miles, Sarah! You must be used to living out of a suitcase. Great that you are getting so experience so many places, and even better that you are sharing your experiences through your writing. Keep up the good work!

You definitely start to pick up better travel habits, that’s for sure. I went from being a girl who has to pack her entire wardrobe, to one who would rather look less fashionable but be more agile. I hope to one day be able to look back at the list of places I’ve not been and have it be a smaller one than the places I have 🙂
I love to travel. Even when i can’t I still travel through books and blogs. Thank you for sharing!
I think my dream job (other than being a fiction author) would be a travel writer…somehow I need to make this happen.
I think you would be great at it. Missing your calling eh?
I think Frommer’s needs to get off their ass and hire me already.
Fodor’s may be hiring
Or they will be when I shower them with my brilliance.
