Profile:

Jen Leo is a leading authority in the online travel world. Founded in 2002, her former blog, WrittenRoad.com, was noted in “Frommer’s Editor’s Choice: Our Favorite Travel Blogs”, and was named one of “Writers Digest 101 Best Websites for Writers”. She’s also blogged for the BootsnAll Travel Network, HotelChatter.com, Weblogs Inc and Six Apart. Better known as the award-winning editor of the popular five-book humor series that started with Sand In My Bra (Travelers’ Tales), Jen encourages others to hit the road as often as they can. If she could be anywhere it’d be bodysurfing in Australia, eating shrimp tacos in Baja or checking out a new hotel in Las Vegas. She loves finding vacation getaways, and if Jen can’t hit the road herself, she’s quick to point others in the right direction. You can find Jen mentioned on popular travel blogs and websites like Gadling, Gridskipper, Rick Steves, Mobissimo, Go Nomad, Transitions Abroad, World Hum and Rolf Potts’ Vagabonding.
