For The Cut's Fall Fashion issue, I spent months hanging out with the RHONY reboot's breakout star, dill-hating oddball, and risk-taking comeback kid thecut.com/article/jenna-lyo…

The Real Houselife of Jenna Lyons

Anyone successfully gotten EU #compensation after being #bumped from a #vuelingflight? I'm writing a story about their illegal avoidance of compensating guests but can't find any positive experiences to include. DM me to share @vueling stories on flight bumping, and compensation.

@vueling is a joke. Bumped from 65 Euro flight along with 14 others (a daily occurance @veneziaairport) have to feed and house you @sheratonhotels, and put you on the next flight. By EU law, they owe each person 250 Euros for inconveneince. Just sell the seats you have, idiots.

My latest for Departures, how Thailand's domesticated elephants are surviving without tourists. The Golden Triangle Elephant Foundation's livestreams of jumbos in the wild are like quarantine therapy. #elephant #thailand #southeastasia #krabi #chiangmai bit.ly/2BHbJ2Z
