When you’re lying on the white sands of the Mexican Riviera, the
stresses(压力)of the world seem a million miles away. Hey, stop! This is no
vacation---yon have to finish something!
Here lies the problem fat travel writer and food critic(评论家)Edie Jarolim. “I
always loved traveling and always liked to eat, but it never occurred to me that I could
make money doing both of those things. ” Jarolim said. Now you can read her travel
advice everywhere --- in Arts and Antiques, in Brides, or in one of her three books.
The Complete Idiot Travel Guide to Mexico’s Beach Resorts.
Her job in travel writing began Some eight years ago. After getting a PhD in
English in Canada, she took a test for Frommer’s travel guides, passed it, and got the
job. After working at Frommer’s, Jarolim worked for a while at Rough Guides in
London, then Fodor’s, where she fell so in love with a description of the Southwest of
the U. S. that she moved there.
Now as a travel writer, she spends one-third of her year on the road. The rest of
the time is spent completing her tasks and writing reviews of restaurants at home in
Tucson, Arizona.
As adventurous as the job sounds, the hard part is fact --- checking all the
information. Sure, it’s great to write about a tourist attraction, but you’d better get the
local(当地的)museum hours correct or you could really ruin someone’s vacation.
