Informationen zum Autor Ashley Brantley has been writing about food, travel, and culture for more than a decade. Having lived in three of Tennessee's four major cities, Brantley loves her home state - and loves writing about it. After earning an English degree from the University of Tennessee Knoxville and a master's in journalism from the University of Memphis, she made Nashville her home. Brantley currently lives in The Nations neighborhood with her husband (a chef who loves running, traveling and drinking whiskey) and her dog (a Pekingese who looks like a gremlin but eats like a pig). When she's not reviewing restaurants for the Nashville Scene, you can find Brantley planning her next vacation, seeing a Jason Isbell show, volunteering at Our Kids (a Nashville nonprofit that helps children affected by sexual abuse), spending time with family, or watching truly terrible reality TV. Klappentext Frommer's EasyGuides contain punchy, concise prose by our expert local journalists, which gives readers all they need to know to plan the perfect vacation. This includes reviews for travel venues in all price ranges, as well as information on culture and history that will enhance any trip.
