Want to travel more? You gotta get this book! 
By Beth Mc.
The author ditched it all traveling the world for over three years and even now that she’s based out of the US again, she still manages to travel more often in a year than most people do in a lifetime. She’s incorporated all that knowledge and travel experience into an easy-to-read book full of tips and tricks that are helpful whether you want to tour the world (it’s cheaper than you think!) or just need a really great vacation at the cheapest price possible.

Get This Book! 
By Paul Walia

Lisa Lubin is a great writer and an inspiration to a lot of us in the world. All of us who wish we could stop dealing with the routine days of our jobs and lives. We dream of traveling the world instead. Well, that is her life! She lets us know that it isn’t just a daydream…it’s actually possible. Her writing is articulate and witty. I highly recommend this book. Can you even find a better person to learn how to travel from? I think not. Go Lisa!

 
Leyla from Women On the Road

I’ve now known Lisa for at least five years. We emailed, became friends and she ended up spending a week Couchsurfing in my house in France. Lisa is a special person – a talented woman whose talent hasn’t gone to her head. Despite three Emmy awards, a couple of books under her belt, an award-winning blog and many more distinctions, she’s level-headed and that’s exactly the kind of advice she gives in her book. If you’re wondering whether a life of travel is for you, don’t decide until you read what Lisa has to say.

“From the interested layman’s perspective, the book was fun to read, well-formatted, and substantive.  I especially liked the tip sheet summaries.  We watch the Channel 11 News Hour nightly, and I kept seeing your points illustrated in its setup pieces – the establishing shots, the transitions, the little story within the bigger story, the wide shots and close-ups, the use of sound.” 
Peg Corwin Marketing Consultant

 

“…if you simply want to improve your journalism, it will provide tips that apply to writing, photography, and video production.  Whether you shoot video to sell a product, inform, promote yourself or your blog, spread your ideas, entertain – then Lisa’s book will be a great jumping off point to give you direction and ultimately get you making good, effective videos.” 
Sherry Ott Writer, Photographer

 

“I’ve read through Lisa’s guide and I just love all the tips and tidbits that she brings from the newsroom era and explains to you in easy to digest terms. It’s a great overview of all-things-video and the perfect starting place.”
Andy Hayes, Travel & Web Consultant

 

“The guide is full of no-fluff information that covers run-and-gun shooting, interviewing subjects, framing shots and editing.” Jason Brubaker, Filmmaker

 

“This guide is not just aimed at travel bloggers – the tips Lisa shares based on her many years experience in TV broadcasting can apply to anyone who wants to make good videos. This ebook is packed full of advice and takes you through all the stages of making a great video.” Erin McNeaney, Travel Blogger

 

“What I like most about the way this eBook is written is the way Lisa makes you feel like she is talking to a friend. She puts a personal touch on it making it seem less like a text book…If you are just starting out wanting to be a video journalist then this eBook will give you the tips you wouldn’t think of, but make the most sense once you know them. Broken down into four chapters “The Story”, “The Shoot”, “Writing” and “Editing” I can’t think of anything that she has left out.” Cailin O’Neil, Film Production Coordinator
