What does it take to leave a stable career in Corporate America and become a globetrotting travel writer? Join us as we journey with Amy Piper, who did just that! Amy's transition is nothing short of inspiring, and she brings us along on her adventures from a thrilling photo safari in Tanzania to an eagerly anticipated culinary expedition in Italy. Her tales of unusual foods will fascinate both travel enthusiasts and food lovers.
Discover the magic of finding hidden culinary gems during U.S. road trips. We've gathered priceless tips on spotting the best local eateries, including observing where public utility workers dine and tapping into the wisdom of transportation workers. Plus, Amy gives us a sneak peek into her latest book, "Secret Michigan: A Guide to the Weird, Wonderful, and Obscure," filled with unique attractions and amusing anecdotes from her extensive travels across Michigan. Ever heard of the Anatomy of Death Museum in Mount Clemens? You won't want to miss this!
If you've ever dreamt of becoming a travel writer, this episode is a treasure trove of insights. Amy shares her experiences and tips on writing about both Midwest and international destinations. She discusses her book "A Hundred Things to Do in Lansing, Michigan Before You Die" and her contributions to "Midwest Road Trip Adventures."
