Who is Julie Dawn Fox?

In a nutshell, I’m a well-travelled writer with experience of working in twelve different countries in various fields.

From my base in central Portugal, I work with clients around the world to create compelling copy for the web and in print.

Why choose me as a writer

Since 2002, I’ve been teaching English as a foreign language in Spain, Italy, Tanzania, Venezuela, Portugal and Vietnam. I’m also an experienced writing examiner. This means that not only am I adept at inter-cultural communication, I’m also something of an expert in the finer points of English language and grammar.

DKI’ve recently updated the hotels and restaurant sections for the latest editions of the Dorling Kindersley Eyewitness Guides to Portugal, Lisbon and  Europe (yet to be published).

NorthstarI have also worked for NorthStar Media, updating their Lisbon Guide for industries at Travel42.
