Hi, I'm La Carmina!
I'm passionate about travel and alt subcultures around the world (especially Goth and Japanese). I started blogging in 2007, and my site grew to opportunities I never imagined -- including writing books and hosting TV shows.
I've now visited over 70 countries, and share my adventures with worldwide publications, as well as my blog and social media. (I received a travel journalism award from the Society of American Travel Writers, and "Best Blog of the Year").
Enjoy my TV reel with clips from Oddities, Bizarre Foods, No Reservations etc. Connect with me via my award-winning blog & social networks (@lacarmina), and email me. (gothiccarmina @ gmail dot com)
