I write about the people, places and ideas shaping Latin America

 
 

Facts tell you what happened. Good writing helps you understand why it matters.

My journalism has taken me from presidential campaigns to coral reefs and from indigenous communities in the Amazon to remote deserts. I write about places through the people who know them best, published in The Economist, Monocle, The Observer, The Guardian, BBC Travel, National Geographic Traveller, Wanderlust, Intrepid Travel and the i newspaper. I’m also the lead author of DK Travel’s new guidebook to Colombia, out late 2026.

Prior to moving to Colombia, I was the assistant culture editor at The Economist in London. Before London, I lived in India, France and Thailand. I also do freelance editing, copywriting and ghostwriting covering culture, politics and urbanism.
