Valentina Lopez

Born and raised in Florida, Valentina soon realized that she was in possession of a boundless gypsy soul. While traveling the globe and experiencing other cultures is her calling, her true passion lies in bringing people closer together and helping them realize that the entire planet is just one big community. That passion, along with her love for the written word, made travel reporting a natural fit for Valentina. She enjoys nothing more than diving headlong into obscure cultures and communities, learning their stories, and then sharing those stories with the world. Of course, she also has her hobbies. These include exploring caves and coral reefs with her well-worn scuba gear, navigating backroads in search of hidden geocaches, and immersing herself in the nightlife of whichever locale she happens to be in at the time. (She also has a real weakness for games of chance, but that’s not the sort of thing you include in a biography…) As our resident travel reporter, Valentina is committed to bringing the culture of the world directly to your doorstep. Whether her writing inspires your next adventure or just puts a few faces to the unfamiliar, we hope her experiences and exploits light a spark of curiosity and exploration in your heart as well.
