The Matador community has some of the most vibrant personalities on earth and one such individual is N. Chrystine Olson. We first connected through our mutual love of travel, writing, and…rugby. We’d toyed with various opportunities to collaborate on subjects we both love.
We finally found one – American Football vs. Rugby: Which is Tougher? for Matador Sports.
I took the stance of an ex-rugby player who’d competed at top levels, and she took the position of an American Football officiant.
Made for a fun collaboration.
Loved the article! I’m with you. Rugby is way more rugged!
Haha. Thanks Julie! It’s funny how the article changed though.They definitely edited to match their ‘style’. Oh well.
Yay! I love that two women wrote this!
And by the way, I was at Whole Foods in New York today when I saw Islands in the magazine rack. I yanked it out of its place, flipped through til I found the Bermuda piece, and said to my mom, “Hey! I know her!” 😉
