  • Jenna grew up in a small New Jersey town with one traffic light, igniting her restlessness and need to see every corner of the world.
  • She has been to more than 40 countries and half of the U.S. (and counting, always) - not counting the airports.
  • An adventurous eater when she travels, she'll try pretty much anything but draws the line at melted cheese and bugs.
