About Sorrel

A British journalist based in Buenos Aires, I first visited Argentina as a year-abroad student in 1998. I since moved here in 2006… so I’m fluent in Spanish, a legal resident and here for the long term…
By day, I cover economy and local politics for the Buenos Aires Herald but also contribute to several publications and guide books. These include Fodor’s Buenos Aires (out 2012), Time Out Buenos Aires and Perfect Places books and recently completed fact checking the Buenos Aires and Patagonia chapters for Eyewitness Argentina (out 2012). After a November 2011 trip to the north-west, I wrote the Salta and Jujuy chapter for Fodor’s Argentina guide book (out 2012). I also wrote a guide to Britain in Spanish for an Argentine publisher in 2011.
In terms of other publications, I also contribute to The Real Argentina, Wallpaper*, Time Out visitors guide, Oryx, the in-flight magazine for Qatar Airways, Screen International and ON Mag (in Spanish).
