Hi! My name is Ivana Gutierrez, but online I go by Ivy.

I am currently attending two Graduate Schools: Faculty of Political Science (FPZG) for a MA in Journalism and Centre for Croatian Studies where I hope to obtain MA in Communication Science/PR. I graduated Journalism at FPZG, University of Zagreb (Croatia) in June, 2012 with summa cum laude.

I run the blog at  domain.me as executive editor. I am part of Netokracija‘s team, though I rarely write nowadays. I used to work as a community manager for a book publishing company, but I recently quit to devote my time to my schools.

I speak Croatian (native), English (C2), Italian (B2) and Spanish (B1).

Now that the official part is over, let’s go through some less boring facts. I own a very spoiled dog, as you can see on the picture on the left. Unfortunately, as much as I adore cats, I will never have one since I am allergic to them. That does not prevent me to cuddle my friends’ cats to death, I just deal with the consequences later.

I love traveling and would, honestly, be willing to go anywhere. I live my life between Europe and North America. May the better continent win?

My blog features different categories and I do not update it as much as I would like to. All the content you will find on this website is mine, unless stated otherwise. Please be kind and do not alter my work and use it as your own. You are allowed to redistribute my texts, but please mention the author and link back to the original.
