CURRENT MISSION I'm a travel writer so I get paid to see the world! ABOUT ME A personal blog of my travels/red carpet events: www.camelsandchocolate.com My professional site: www.kristinluna.com The 411: Grew up in small-town Tennessee, five minutes from the Jack Daniels distillery. Will always be a Southern girl at heart (all hail Dixie) and drink JD likes its water, although I'm currently a journalist in Manhattan - Hell's Kitchen to be exact. Have studied at five universities in five years. Have visited 43 of the 50 U.S. states and nearly 40 countries. And most importantly, I hate sharks, speed bumps, and small, confined spaces, and love chocolate, traveling (obviously) and dogs. Monkeys are okay, too. In the past couple years, I've worked for Harper's, Newsweek, InStyle, Us Weekly, Glamour, In Touch, MTV, Entertainment Weekly and a whole host of other papers and mags. Currently doing the fashion thing at Lucky (when I'm in town) by day, red carpet thing for Entertainment Weekly/InStyle by night, and writing travel pieces for Travel Channel, Forbes Traveler and Newsweek in my "free time". And traveling as much as financially possible. Obviously. Just livin' la vida pura. PHILOSOPHY To see the world. Duh. Also to defy stereotypes and set a positive example for a country who could use some substantial ambassadors at the moment...

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING I haven't had much time to host this year due to being on the road nonstop for work, but I hope to get back into it one of these days. COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE Only great experiences (99% of the time). Have met hundreds of CSers in my four-year involvement (the first few months I was using a friend's profile). Was previously a Hospitality Club enthusiast, but once you go CouchSurfing, you'll never go back! =)
