Katie Cline

Hi, I’m Katie. Thanks for visiting.

I just moved back to my native New York after spending the last five and a half years living abroad in the U.K. (where my daughter was born) with my husband and our anxiety-ridden pup, Jack Daniels. London is my happy place, and we were able to live and work there (untethered to corporate visas) thanks to my dual citizenship with Ireland. We now live in Astoria, Queens, and when I’m not exploring the best borough, you can probably find me at Trout Landing, near Lake George, or Gallant Fox, in Saratoga Springs—two vacation rentals that we own and operate in upstate New York.

Professionally, I work in public relations, having led (and continuing to lead) global communications for many major organizations around the world.

But this page that you’ve stumbled upon is dedicated to creative pursuits, writing and speaking mostly about short-term rentals (STRs), real estate investing, travel, motherhood, relationships and more.
