I'm a British writer living in Portugal, writing about a broad range of niches:

Food and wine. I founded and owned what was once named Britain's best indepdendent wine store, before selling it in 2020 to travel and finally settle in Portugal. I am also chief editor of Rooted, a Medium food and wine pub.

Women-based issues. Because it's important.

Infertility. Because I can't have kids, and we don't talk about infertility enough.

Opinion pieces. Because I don't like to keep my opinions to myself.

Cultural commentary. Because culture and society shape who we are.

You can also find me in two other places on the internet. The Sauce which dives into food and wine culture and This Much I Know which dives into cultural commentary.
