Susan is a professional writer who fell for adventure travel in 1993 on a self-guided trek of Nepal's Annapurna Circuit. Her writing career began in daily journalism as a reporter with Canada's National Post. She later pivoted to freelance writing while raising her two sons. In 2020, Susan launched "Midlife Globetrotter," a website and community where women 40+ can find resources and inspiration to add travel to their lives - and the fun, freedom, and meaning that new experiences bring. Susan believes embracing adventure at midlife builds confidence and enables us to imagine new possibilities. She has a special interest in sharing stories of women in tourism, in developing nations.
