About Christina
Brought up trilingual in six different countries on three continents, the travel bug took hold early and informed my choice of career: journalist. But paid opportunities to write about travel in the pre-internet age were few, so I became a general news reporter in Brussels. Many years and four children later, I've returned to my first love: travel writing. I'm interested in the off-beat, the hidden, the places off the well-trodden tourist paths, preferring to discover how the locals live, where they eat, what they do for fun.
