Abbey Hudetz

Abbey Hudetz is a writer and creative based between New York City and Cape Town, South Africa with Midwestern roots. The daughter of an airline pilot, for Abbey wanderlust is in her DNA. When visiting a new destination, she aims for a sweet spot between authenticity and indulgence. Let’s just say if Gwenyth Paltrow and Anthony Bourdain had a love child, Abbey would be their perfect travel companion. Abbey enjoys pre-gaming her travels by deep-diving the destination’s history and building extensive Google Maps of vetted recs. Her travel ethos includes splurging with intention, cosplaying as a local, and that over-planning can be as bad as under-planning. You can find her work on Travel + Leisure, Substack, and various outlets.
