Author - Katya Bleszynska

Katya is a young British writer who has travelled, lived, and worked in Cuba over the past five years. She spent 2019 studying at the University of Havana as part of her degree in Latin American Studies, yet her Cuba education really came from moving in with a big Cuban family in the heart of Central Havana. Becoming fluent in Spanish and integrating into the Cuban community has been the most transformative and profound experience of her life.

She now spends her time between Cuba and Europe where she works as a writer for clients both in and outside of the island, covering topics such as technology, music, travel, and food and drink. Give her a bottle of rum, a game of dominoes, and a reggaeton beat and she’s feliz como una lombriz.
