Tennessee Curiosities

The definitive collection of Tennessee's odd, wacky, and most offbeat people, places, and things, for Tennessee residents and anyone else who enjoys local humor and trivia with a twist.

Kristin Luna spent the first 22 years of her life in Tennessee, before hopping around to New York City, Scotland, the Netherlands, and Denmark and eventually settling in San Francisco. Her intrepid spirit has led her all over the globe in search for adventure, whether scuba diving cageless with sharks in the South Pacific or hurling herself out of a plane at 15,000 feet in the Pyrenees. Kristin has worked on various Frommer's guides, as well as been a regular contributor to Newsweek, Forbes Traveler, the Travel Channel and PEOPLE magazine. Her work has also appeared in the San Francisco Chronicle, Toronto Globe & Mail, Islands, Real Simple, Sherman's Travel, Glamour, InStyle and Entertainment Weekly.
