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 sustainable cultural tourism.
I’ve also collaborated on two books, have been interviewed for different outlets on the topic of overtourism, and had a somewhat steady career as a travel writer for online outlets.
