I've lived in NYC for nearly ten years as a graphic/fashion designer, and had been moonlighting as the author and creator of EscapeBrooklyn.com, my travel website. I was recently laid off from my job in the fashion industry, and decided it was now or never that I pursue my dream of being a travel writer. So far, so good. Looking to connect with other travel bloggers who have more experience and make meaningful connections within the industry.
