Lisa Lubin is a three-time Emmy-award-winning Television Writer/Producer/Photographer. She produced a variety of broadcast specials, including a weekly lifestyles and entertainment magazine show on ABC Chicago for the last ten years. After 15 years in Television she decided to take a sabbatical of sorts, which turned into 2+ years traveling and working her way around the world. She has written about the (mis)adventures that ensued as she traipsed around the globe on her travel website, www.LLworldtour.com, which has had hundreds of thousands of hits and subscribers from all over the world.

Thanks for reading to the end. You have an attention span greater than me. Congrats!





































I chucked it all – the TV job, the boyfriend, the “conventional” life – to travel around the world. Now, I’m creating a new life based less on money and more on travel, laughs, & tasty food.
