\"\"<\/p>\n

Hi, I’m Lori, wanderluster and mom to two awesome kids. We are a multiethnic family, so raising global citizens by seeing, tasting and experiencing the world’s wonders is very important to me and my husband. Our older son is from Vietnam, and our younger son is from  China.<\/p>\n

My husband and I traveled and lived all over the world before having kids. So, we are passing that wanderlust and appreciation for different places, peoples and cultures along to our boys.<\/p>\n

So far, 30 states and 11 countries.<\/p>\n

I am a public relations professional and family travel writer, penning pieces for KidTripster<\/a>, We Said Go Travel,<\/a> this blog, and other travel sites.<\/p>\n

I have also been featured on Self.com<\/a>, Family Vacation Critic<\/a>, Zing!<\/a>, She Knows,<\/a> Your Parking Space UK<\/a>, and local TV news programs.<\/p>\n

I am also the author of The Inadequate Conception \u2013 From Barry White to Blastocytes: What your mom didn\u2019t tell you about getting pregnant <\/a>and a contributing writer in Bradt Travel Guide’s Kidding Around<\/a> and Martinis and Motherhood: Tales of Wonder, Woe and WTF?<\/a><\/p>\n

WORK WITH ME<\/a><\/h2>\n

I’d love to work with your company. As a public relations professional, I understand the power of the pen and having honest reviews and commentary about your products and travel opportunities. I have worked for AirTran Airlines (merged with Southwest Airlines), Philips Consumer Electronics, and Roche Diagnostics which makes Accu-Chek blood glucose monitoring products. I have traveled to 32 countries on four continents and have visited 44 U.S. states.<\/p>\n
