Jen Rose Smith

About the Author

Jen Rose Smith came to New England for the mountains and lakes, then stayed for everything else. She and her husband, Daniel, spend their time exploring the state by car, bicycle, and ski, searching out the sweetest picnic spots, swimming holes, and snack bars.

Jen is a freelance writer whose work on travel, food, and drink has appeared in Best of Burlington, Local Banquet of Vermont, Vermont Magazine, Traveler’s Tales: Best Women’s Travel Writing, Culinate, and Overnight Buses.

Jen has also traveled beyond New England, hunting iguanas in Mexico, cooking in Italy, and riding her bicycle across Newfoundland. Her adventures close to home have been just as compelling. There’s no place she’d rather live.
