I was born in Newcastle and moved to Menorca at the age of 9, where I learnt Catalan and Spanish. I studied physiotherapy at university in Spain then moved back to the UK to study zoology and marine biology. I hold a DALF C1 in French and in Catalan, and currently translate from Catalan, French and Spanish into English.

Testimonials
“Rachael writes a regular feature article for our magazine. Every month I am delighted with the content and composition and she is reliable and always meets our deadline. As well as her articles being well written and entertaining, she is always very knowledgeable on the subject matter and has backed this up with extra research and local insights to ensure the final article is relevant and useful for our readers. I would recommend Rachael to any organisation that is looking for a writer in her fields of interest. She is a versatile writer and a firm favourite with our readers.” Duncan Frazer and Liz Parr, Editors – Roqueta magazine
“I absolutly love the way Rachael writes. She has the ability to describe things very lively and as they are. We worked and lived together in Madagascar where she also wrote an article to promote the waste management project I have been working on. I recognise a lot of the things she writes about, bringing back vivid and precious memories. Thank you and keep on writing!” Simone de Graaf, Project Lead, – Waste Management Ifaty
“I had the pleasure of meeting Rachael in Madagascar and shared many wonderful experiences with her. Rachael is an honest soul and curious about everything that is waiting for her out there. One of our trips led us to visit the Bara tribe near Ranohira and the article Rachael wrote about them is perfectly accurate and truthful. Thank you Rachael for all your honest words and the great lines you wrote for our project too “. Ann-Kristin Becker, Project Lead – ex aqua
“Rachael and I became friends in Madagascar. I really enjoyed her unique perspectives during our conversations and loved her writing because one can really catch her personality speaking through her texts. I remember once she was brainstorming on ideas for an article and I jokingly suggesteded she write a piece on our sponge farming project. Now it is my favorite article on us because she really captured the work we do while adding a lot of our personalities to it. I am very much looking forward to reading more of your pieces! ” Lilia Britz, Project Manager – ex aqua
