Andrea Montgomery

Andrea is a freelance feature-writing British ex-pat living in the beautiful north of Tenerife with her photojournalist husband. A thousand miles away from the beer and burger brigade of the island's south coast, they live on a golf course in a banana plantation at the foot of the stunning La Orotava Valley under the constant gaze of the world's 3rd largest volcano; Mount Teide. Passionate about promoting the Tenerife that wasn't featured on Brits abroad documentaries, she's on a mission to 'make Tenerife a cool destination'. Andrea has co-authored two guide books:'Real Tenerife Island Drives' and 'Going Native in Tenerife' and now produces original copy on Tenerife and the Western Canary Islands for travel websites and regular features on the Canary Islands for in-flight and UK magazines. Along with a group of colleagues, she has recently launched Tenerife's first online magazine; www.tenerifemagazine.com. Andrea has travelled extensively and feels equally at home in the buzz of a big city, the humidity of a rainforest or the tranquility of a deserted beach.
