Pitching Insights

Krista's articles mostly focus on travel, tourism, home decor, and lifestyle. She often features promotional deals, how-to guides, and seasonal content related to these themes. If you have insights or products related to unique travel experiences, home decor inspired by luxury hotels or A-frame architecture, books for leisure reading while traveling or during specific seasons like winter reads for cozying up at home during colder months then she may be interested in your pitches.

Considering her local geographic focus on the United States (specifically California and Santa Monica), any pitches should align with this audience and may include information about local events or attractions that would appeal to Californian readers.

This Laid-Back California Surf Town Just Got a Luxury Boutique Hotel

This Laid-Back California Surf Town Just Got a Luxury Boutique Hotel

By: Krista Simmons

Santa Cruz has always had sweet waves, and now it has a hotel to match. The new La Bahia Hotel & Spa fills a gap in the lineup of offerings in this beloved beach town that was notably lacking in more polished boutique options.
