Like many girls, she planned to be a vet-astronaut-artist, and came closest to that last one by attending UCLA art school. She painted images of cars, but did not own one. Elana reluctantly got a driver's license at age 21 and discovered that she not only loved cars and wanted to drive them, but that other people loved cars and wanted to read about them, which meant somebody had to write about them. Since receiving activation codes, Elana has written for numerous car magazines and websites, covering classics, car culture, technology, motorsports, and new-car reviews. In 2020, she received a Best Feature award from the Motor Press Guild for the C/D story "A Drive through Classic Americana in a Polestar 2." In 2023, her Car and Driver feature story "In Washington, D.C.'s Secret Carpool Cabal, It's a Daily Slug Fest" was awarded 1st place in the 16th Annual National Arts & Entertainment Journalism Awards by the Los Angeles Press Club.

20 questions with The Bachelor's Marc Buckner
The smell of fudge always reminds him of home, says Marc Buckner. We put The Bachelor's Marc Buckner on the spot in our series of fun Q&As. 1. What's the one app you can't live without? Instagram, due to my line of work. 2. How would you spend R1 million in 24 hours? I'd gather friends and family and jet off in business class to a beautiful location and go to a festival or party to have the best time ever. 3. Which song always makes you dance? All techno songs. Newsletter Daily You Snapshot Your daily must-read selection of moving human interest stories, great inspiration and wonderfully wacky tales Sign up 4. Which three people (dead or alive) would you invite to your fantasy dinner party? Actor Arnold Schwarzenegger – I don't think anyone has been better at manifesting their desires than he has, so I'd love to pick his brain. Albert Einstein and the Dalai Lama – if anyone knows the meaning of life, it would be them. 5. Which fictional character would you love to play in a movie? I would love to play Wolverine in Deadpool & Wolverine. Hugh Jackman did an amazing job, but I would love to do my own take on it. 6. If you could relive one day from your past, which one would it be? I wouldn't want to relive any day from the past – I love being present. If I had to choose, it would be today because I focus on living in the now for a better future. 7. What's the best piece of advice you've received? Be present and stop overthinking. Think about the now. 8. What's your most-used emoji in chats, and why is it your favourite? The thumbs up or the flexing arm. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Marc Buckner (@marcbuckner) 9. What's the most delicious thing you've ever eaten? There are so many because I've gone through phases of trying different cuisines. There was a time I was a fruitarian, and I loved durian from South Asia. 10. If you could own a holiday home anywhere in the world, where would it be? Bali. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Marc Buckner (@marcbuckner) 11. What are your favourite books? The Power of Now: A Guide to Spiritual Enlightenment by Eckhart Tolle and The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho. 12. Who's your biggest inspiration? Arnold Schwarzenegger, because of all he's achieved, from acting to being the governor of California, after coming from the small town of Thal in Austria. 13. What smell instantly takes you back to childhood? Fudge. Growing up, I would always make fudge with my uncle. 14. Other than your current career, what would your dream job be? I have two. The first would be a travel expert, getting paid to travel the world and experience beautiful locations. The second is having a farm sanctuary for rescued dogs – something I'm working on. 15. Sweet or salty snacks – which do you crave more? I like both, but my current go-to for salty snacks is Wagyu mince that I usually cook up, and my sweet tooth always craves dried dates and figs. 16. If you had to compete in a reality TV show, which one would it be? Survivor. I actually didn't want to do The Bachelor. LOL! 17. Name a movie that always makes you cry, no matter how often you watch it. The Notebook – it's about that enduring love and standing by your partner no matter what. 18. What's your most irrational fear? Spiders. I've been bitten twice. I remember when I was younger, I woke up with a baboon spider above my head, and my dad came into the room to save the day. 19. If your life had a signature catchphrase, what would it be? 'Ever evolving, ever growing.' 20. If you were stranded on a desert island, what three items would you want to have? My camel backpack, loaded up with Wagyu droewors, dried fruit and a book.
