Hi friends, I'm Sunny (except when I'm grumpy; then you can call me Stormy).

I am a travel expert and travel writer. I write original content (no AI-generated rubbish here) and share tips.

Beating out the bots in the volatile media industry is exhausting!

Your love and coffee keep me going :)

I answer reader questions and occasionally host live Ask Me Anything sessions. Sometimes for PR, sometimes for travel writers, and sometimes for everyone.

Got a burning question (about travel writing, how to pitch journalists, living abroad, my picks for the best hotels in Hawaii, or something else entirely)? Submit it to me when you send a coffee, and it may be featured in an upcoming post, newsletter, or AMA session.

You can find me in one of my home cities (Honolulu, Hawaii, and Amman, Jordan), adventuring around one of my other favorite places where I've previously lived and frequently return (like Costa Rica and Thailand), or on the road for an assignment. And you can find my writing in top-tier outlets, including National Geographic, Travel + Leisure, Condé Nast, Reader's Digest, and many others.
