Carolina Are

I am a drinks/lifestyle/tech account executive for PR agency Manifest London, working across global brands like Someone Like Me, The International Wine Challenge and TEDxBrixton.

I graduated from City University London's BA Journalism in 2014 with a prize for Best Dissertation, which I presented at academic conference ECREA 2014 in Lisbon and at the International Journalism Festivalin Perugia. My paper has also recently won the Undergraduate Awards 2015 in Media and Journalism.

I write for Couchsurfer Reviews, which I started just before going couchsurfing alone in the US for two months; I review cocktail bars on Italian Kingdom and blog for the Huffington Post. I'm trying to publish my fourth novel,"Psychotender", a story about toxic relationships and society's fascination with the "bad boy".

I like rock and metal music, tattoos, cupcakes, sports and spiders. I enjoy writing and reading about twisted personalities.
