/ ABOUT ME / Acerca de mí
I'm a writer, photographer and translator specializing in stories about
off-the-beaten-path travel, ethical travel, sustainability, history, culture and food.
My work has been featured in publications such as The Guardian, BBC, New York Magazine, Fodors, The Daily Beast, Roads & Kingdoms, and Thrillist, among others.
I'm currently based in Mexico City, where I work as a freelance writer and
occasionally as an English instructor and translator.
You can usually find me someplace unique, doing something at least slightly ill-advised.
Soy escritora, fotógrafa y traductora especializada en historias sobre viajes fuera de lo común, viajes éticos y responsables, sostenibilidad, historia, cultura y comida.
Mi trabajo ha sido publicado en medios como The Guardian, BBC, New York Magazine, Fodors, The Daily Beast , Roads & Kingdoms, y Thrillist, entre otros.
Actualmente resido en Ciudad de México, donde trabajo como escritora independiente y, ocasionalmente, profesora de inglés y traductora .
Puedes encontrarme en algún lugar único, haciendo algo que no recomendarías.
