As a midwestern gal at heart, Susan Portnoy considers herself a New York native after living in Manhattan for over 20 years. In 2018, she left a long, successful career in fashion, entertainment, and media communications to follow her passion for photography and full-time travel. She loves to capture remote destinations, indigenous cultures, and an exhaustive list of wildlife with her camera.
Susan’s hope is to inspire readers through her photography to seek adventure and connect with the people and places they visit.
In addition, over the years, she has created editorial content (writing, photos, both) for major publications such as Newsweek, AFAR, The Telegraph, The Globe & Mail, and sponsored content for clients such as Adobe, Aurora Expeditions, and the Washington Post Creative Group. She created The Insatiable Traveler because she loves world travel and wanted to share her experiences and the lessons learned so that her readers can make absolute travel journeys.
