Welcome to the last episode of the first season of While She's Away! 

Don't Worry! I'm going to sprinkle in bonus episode or two over the summer during my travels. I'll be back full swing with season 2 in September! 

This week I had an incredible conversation with Nikki Vargas! Originally from Colombia, Nikki is a travel editor, published author, and writer now living in New York City. Her first book, Wanderess, is an exhaustive women's travel resource combining the wisdom, expertise, and experience of leading women in the travel industry and was published in Feburary 2022. Nikki is currently writing her second book, a personal travel memoir. 

Currently, Nikki is an editor for Fodor's Travel. She also is the Found Editor of Unearth Women, a women's travel publication she founded back in 2018. Unearth Women's mission is to show travelers how to support women worldwide, while also sharing women's stories. Her work with Unearth Women has appeared in The New York Times, Good Morning America, CNN, Vogue Spain, and The Washington Post. 

In this episode we chat about...
