¡Bienvenidos! My name is Kate Dana and I am a teacher, traveler, and writer. I specialize in articles about living and working abroad, global education, travel in Latin America, and personal finance.

In 2012, I moved to Mexico for one year before going to Colombia, where I lived and worked for four years. In 2018, I returned to the United States, briefly living in Charleston, S.C. and Seattle, WA. I’m now back in Sacramento, CA, experiencing both nostalgia and rebirth from where my journey began.

My website is being updated to bring you more of what I have to offer, as well as some interesting stories and insights. Please have a look around and check back often for new information.

For information on my teaching, please visit Kate Dana Teaches.

For my blog about life on the coast, visit La Gringa Costeña.

“[Kate Dana’s] execution of the project – both visually and content-wise – was exactly what we envisioned. She brought some really creative ideas that helped enhance the final product. The project was even completed slightly ahead of schedule.”
