¡Hola! Soy Cristina.

I’m a travel and lifestyle writer and editor. My heart is in Mexico City and my curiosity leads the way.

Thanks for being here.

Let’s travel together through words, images, flavors, and memories.

I’m a Mexico City-born travel writer; a lover of coffee, the ocean, and Italian food. My passion for exploring the world has taken me to see places and meet people I never thought possible – and I’d love to create new stories with you.

Get to know me…

For as long as I can remember, I’ve loved to travel and I’ve loved to write. I’m lucky enough to combine these two passions in my job. Over the past decade, I’ve worked at publications like Time Out New York, Travel+Leisure México, and Aire (Aeroméxico’s in-flight magazine), where I was deputy editor and Editor-in-Chief.

As a freelance writer, I have contributed to outlets such as T Magazine (The New York Times), Departures, AMEX Essentials, Travel+Leisure, Travesías, Food & Wine en Español, Tasting Table, and Culinary Backstreets, among many others. Along with my business partner Alba Aguilar, I’m also the co-founder of La Hotelista, a hospitality-centered content platform. Check us out by clicking here.

In 2020, I published the book Art and Fiesta in Mexico City with Hardie Grant Travel, a travel guide to my hometown, Mexico City. Working on this book has been one of the most beautiful, challenging experiences in my career, and you can find out more about it by clicking here.
