    Hope it's not too late to throw my sombrero onto this pile of excellent colleagues.  No excuses, other than was on the road for three weeks, and catching up on deadlines and laundry since returning. 

    I've stayed at -- and written about -- Iberostar properties in the past, so already familiar with the reputation and locations. I write mainly about eco-travel, family travel, luxury travel and historic travel, all of which are Iberostar marketing themes.  Plus, I'm a PADI certified scuba diver, who can write intelligently about the wonderful world underwater.  Current outlets include USA Today (travel), Yahoo News (environmental and consumer news), FoxNews.com (travel) and travel trade publications, and I've written travel and consumer advice articles for top publications including NYTimes, Budget Travel and in-flights.  Contact me directly at  evelynkanter@gmail.com.

    See www.evelynkanter.com for a full bio and recent magazine clips.  www.car-and-travel-com is my website covering green cars, green travel and saving the green in your wallet on both.  www.nyconthecheap.com is my website on deals and advice for residents and visitors to NYC, including travel, with 50,000+ average PVs.

    Best of luck with this difficult choice.

    Hi, I sent you a private message, but I'd be interested in learning more about this position. It's exactly what I do for a variety of clients. Do you require that we be already familiar with your properties or will you be providing fam trips?  You can also find me at http://sexandthebeach.blogspot.com and as a travel editor http://www.miamibeach411.com. Many thanks and good luck in your search.
