Christina Bozhidarova

I am a journalist with more than ten years of experience in news reporting, feature writing and editing for digital media.

As a devoted self-starter, my enjoyment and critical interest in new media increased significantly throughout the years while I was working at MaYoMo.com, a former social news network for citizen journalism (no longer in business). My experience there helped me gain excellent research skills, the ability to find breaking news, to write high-quality, creative and reliable content and unearth unique user-generated video footage on topics of interest, which eventually resulted in my personal success story -- some of my articles have been referred by The Huffington Post, The Guardian, France24 Observers, The Daily Beast and NowPublic, to name a few. But that's in the past.

Currently I'm an editor for the News Monitor of Companyinfo.nl - a Dutch databank for the business world; also writing a tiny daily column (rubriek) for Het Financiële Dagblad, one of the major financial daily newspapers in the Netherlands.

In my spare time I am a freelance journalist for the Bulgarian weekly Capital Light and a keen TED Talks translation volunteer.

I was born and live in Sofia, Bulgaria - the saddest country in the world, according to a recent research by The Economist. Yet, I'm very optimistic, enthusiastic and cheerful, I'm fond of traveling, biking, mountain hiking, photography, European cinema, going to concerts, art festivals, meeting new people, reading, growing plants, cooking and I have a strong affection for cats (and dogs).
