An Interview
In other news, if you’re curious to know a little more about our beady-eyed editor, she was recently interviewed on InMyAllStars.com. It’s one of a series of interviews Timen’s putting together of various folks in the self-dubbed ‘travesphere’.

Other interviewees include Terah Shelton of Traveler’s Pen, Ian Mackenzie of Brave New Traveler (one of our favourite travel blogs), and Mark Ashley of Upgrade: Travel Better.
