About Annie Gurvis
I am wrapping up my studies in Political Science, Geography and Urban Studies at Macalester College - a little liberal arts school in chilly Saint Paul, Minnesota. I've been fortunate to have travelled to almost all the United States (7 left!), a number of Canadian provinces and a few countries outside of North America - but even more of my travel knowledge comes from my deep love of travel books. I'll be writing about Travel Talk on Twitter - check out my new posts every Tuesday for a fun and engaging take on travel trends and topics.
