About Florentyna
I'm a writer, translator, and private tour guide. My ideal mode of travel is staying somewhere interesting for several weeks or months since I'll probably spend half of that time working. I'm a stickler for thorough research and am easily won over with cute animals and good food. Since 2022, I have been the Editorial Director of sankaku, an independent print publication celebrating people and craft. My first essay collection/memoir, How Kyoto Breaks Your Heart, was published in 2023.
