Taylor Donlon

Taylor came to travel writing the way most people come to their best habits: early and accidentally. From childhood trips to Fiji to family adventures in Dubai, she developed an instinct for the kind of travel that actually stays with you. These days she channels that into her role as a content writer at Luxury Escapes, covering everything from hotel reviews to longform features for Dream magazine. Her recent conversion to solo travel led her straight to Europe, and Spain stole her heart entirely. The slower pace, the instinct to celebrate every moment of life, the locals who actually know where to eat – it's a philosophy she's carried home with her. When she's not tracking down hidden eateries, she's hunting the best boutiques in every city she lands in. If her friends need a recommendation, they know exactly who to ask.
