Fran Folsom
First and foremost I am a seasoned traveler, travel writer, guidebook author, chocoholic, foodie and lover of history. I guess the history part comes from growing up and living in a very historic area in Massachusetts.
I love to write about my travels and discoveries, to me it is a way of sharing my experiences. Please feel free share your travels with me at Email Me I would love to hear from everyone.
When I say I'm a chocoholic, I really mean it. I have been known to hunt down good chocolate shops up and down the East coast and across the country. Wherever I travel to I'm always on the look out for chocolates. I've written many articles about the heavenly stuff.
I don't just write about history and food, I also enjoy horseback riding, shopping, art galleries, kayaking, walking/hiking so you can look forward to reading articles about these experiences.
