WRITING FOR AOL TRAVEL: HUFFINGTON POST MERGER! ANDREA FECZKO, YOUTUBE TV HOST: TOKYO EARTHQUAKE INTERVIEW.
I have a new job (keep reading for details). But first… while in Los Angeles, Sebastiano and I made a video with my talented friend, Andrea Feczko. She’s a TV host and producer, and runs a popular YouTube channel (perhaps you’ve seen her Ke$ha parodies?).
Andrea interviews Seba and La Carmina about the Tokyo earthquake, and what people can do to help. We invite you to view it above and on Andrea Feczko’s YouTube.
The video includes never-before-seen footage that Seba took, minutes after the big earthquake hit.
In this confusing time, we’re heartened by your support for Japan. Please keep the donations coming — I hope you’ll bid for the Iron First prize pack.
A bit of career news… Starting next week, I’ll be a journalist for America Online. As you may have heard, Huffington Post and AOL’s merger resulted in some shuffling. The two travel sections have combined under AOL Travel, and I’ll be one of the main contributors.
I can’t say much yet, but the new Travel section is in the best possible editorial hands. Expect up-to-date, quality writing; city guides you can actually use for trip-planning.
And most excitingly, I’ll be starting up a new project with AOL Travel… Mum’s the word for now. But soon, you may see me in places you’d never expect — perhaps even your hometown!
For now, come read my new article and slideshow on Huffington Post, featured on the front page. It’s about host club culture and my Pirate adventures with Norway TV: The World’s Gaudiest Japanese Host Club: Shinjuku Ai. (Big kiss if you Like or Tweet it.)
What type of travel coverage would you like to see? Hope you find a minute to watch our new video!
Song of the Day: Electro for Japan! The 44-track compilation album is free to stream, and all download proceeds go to the earthquake victims. Bangin.
