    Bio: Bio: It’s not like the film “Heathers,” but the authors of ArizTravel do have the same first name, Christina Hecht and Christina Zubieta (Chrissy). They maintain six Arizona travel websites, and one day, Christina H realized that many of the questions people were asking through the sites had answers that anyone visiting Arizona could benefit from. Thus, the birth of the blog. The Christinas earn a living from selling advertising on their sites, but they accept no compensation or freebies for blog postings. Christina H enjoys being a tour guide. She’s really proud of her ability to find the back roads to almost anywhere she goes. And Chrissy Z’s spirit of adventure is borderline crazy. So you have one Christina to get you going in a great direction and the other to help you explore.
