Julie is a freelance travel, arts, and culture writer and editor who lives between Amsterdam and NYC and travels the world besides, with frequent touchdowns in cultural capitals across Europe, Asia, and Africa. She has a special affinity for African and Korean art.

“As a native of Manhattan who's spent almost 15 years trawling these streets, as well as the museums, interiors, and creative spaces of over 50 countries, I’ve reported on most areas of culture from hidden estates of Europe to treetop hotels in Africa to the insider art scenes of Asia. I really love to dive into the history, economics and culture of a place—catch me at archives, ruins and city museums, but then have a decadent 3-course lunch al fresco in a fabulous outfit or walk through an entire city with no map or plan just following the façades of buildings I like the most.”

"Thanks to Julie, we arrived in Amsterdam knowing exactly where to go and what to do-which was invaluable on a 2-day trip. It saved me time that would have usually been spent Googling and trusting strangers’ opinions.”
