Focussed on Hospitality
About
Hello, I’m Angela Carson, a single mom from California. At 21, I dropped out of uni to travel solo and live in Mexico. I’ve explored 37 countries, living in Spain, the U.S. and India with my daughter, then China, Hong Kong, an island in Indonesia, Pakistan, and now Malaysia for the 2nd time as an empty nester.
By day, I help hotels, restaurants and travel brands to grow online.
I’ve toured with Guns N’ Roses as the head of social media, have a private pilot’s license, love to write and drink red wine … and my travel YouTube channel has over 7 million views. I’ve been a luxury travel and food blogger since 2011 and I’m a contributor to Condé Nast Traveller, MAXIM, Esquire, FEMALE and more.
