I write about sustainable tourism, indigenous cultures, and wellness travel for the likes of CNN Travel, The Sunday Times, The London Standard, Wanderlust, City AMBoat International, Robb Report, Sleeper, Country & Town House, Citizen Femme, Tatler and Condé Nast Traveller.

 

My work has taken me to environments as diverse as the frozen wilderness of the Arctic, the grassy plains of the Kenyan bush, the sweeping sand dunes of the Empty Quarter desert, and the dizzying heights of the Himalayas.

 

I am passionate about highlighting travel experiences that foster a greater understanding of cultures around the world. 

Having grown up in Sweden and being half-Argentinian, I am fluent in Swedish and Spanish. I have an MA in Magazine Journalism from City University of London and I am a member of the British Guild of Travel Writers. In 2024, I won the 'Travel Trade Feature of the Year' category in the BGTW's Members' Excellence Awards, and in 2025 I was shortlisted in the IGMAs. 

 

Due to my commitment to covering ecotourism, for four years running I also helped judge the 'Best Sustainable Travel Story' category in the Australian Society of Travel Writers' awards.
