Published Work

Since the beginning of the blog, I’ve been collaborating with fellow travel bloggers, guest posting for them with content about Lisbon, the Azores, or cultural tourism.
I’ve also collaborated on several books, have been interviewed for different outlets on the topic of overtourism, and had a steady career as a travel writer for online publications.
