The Concierge Questionnaire
The Concierge Questionnaire is an online travel magazine, launched in 2009, featuring locals with “travel answers from those who know," and inspired by the Proust Questionnaire.
Since April 2011, Chantal Westerman, former Entertainment Editor and Hollywood Correspondent of ABC's Good Morning America (GMA), has been hosting ConciergeQ Conversations with Chantal Westerman.
