Veteran travel writer and expert Jill K. Robinson shares tales about torture on a Mexican tequila tour, her favorite New Orleans bars and why she’s “not a Strip girl” — in Las Vegas, anyway.
Guest bio: Jill K. Robinson writes about travel and adventure for AFAR, National Geographic Traveler, Travel + Leisure, Outside, the SF Chronicle, and more. Her book, “100 Things to Do in San Francisco Before You Die (2nd edition),” was released in 2018, and it was a great reason to plan plenty of “research trips” with co-author, Kimberley Lovato. She’s won writing and photography awards, dodged venomous snakes, nearly crashed into a grizzly while mountain biking, snorkeled with sharks, and imbibed a cocktail or two thousand.
