About

I'm a writer, an audiovisual translator, a teacher, a blogger, an ebook editor and a compulsive knitter. I like travelling, cinema, sewing, martial arts, football (soccer for those of you out in the US), reading and cats. I prefer staying up late to waking up early, savoury to sweet and the sea to the mountains. I'm also a pathological introvert in the process of social reintegration. The rest is there in my CV.
