I’m Adding Travel and Tourism Writer to my Resume

Fodor’s and Frommer’s have nothing on me.  Recently I was recruited to contribute to a new travel website called UpTake.  Some of the site is still in development—and the blog part of it is always adding content of course—but it already has an impressive amount to offer.

In its own words, “UpTake is a travel search and discovery site—the first step for travelers to decide where to go, where to stay or what to do. We help users make informed decisions about what best fits their travel preferences. We scoured more than 1,000 sites to collect 400,000 places to go, things to do and places to stay in the U.S. Then we analyzed and organized over 20 million travelers’ opinions to enable search based on exact travel requirements and preferences. See about UpTake for more information about our company.”

Some of you will get a kick out of my first post.  Believe it or not, I wrote about how great my part of the country is in the fall.  If you know me at all, you know that I think fall comes in second or third as far as seasons go.  But, I wasn’t going to wait seven or eight months to tell everyone how great it is around here in the summer.  I’ll just have to do another post about summer in the Litchfiled Hills next June or July.  Until then, I’ll be writing about other great locations in New England and New York.  Check me out and leave a comment. Maybe it’ll even convince you to come visit.
