About me
I’m a journalist, editor and writer who grew up under the Maltese sun, studied and worked in Scotland, and since 2016 have been based in Munich. Trained by the Associated Press and with a Masters from the University of Edinburgh, I now run my own content company, ittra.eu, where I write creative and business content. I also coach public speaking. Beyond words, I’m a proud mum of wonderful boys and an actress who has performed and written my own plays. I’m at my happiest swimming in the Mediterranean Sea. Travel, for me, is about stories: discovering places through their people, food and hidden corners.
