Welcome!

Welcome to my website, whether you are a fellow traveller seeking inspiration for your next trip, or an editor looking for an enthusiastic, talented and terribly modest writer.

I'm a freelance writer and passionate traveller currently calling Cape Town home. A self-proclaimed South Africa expert, I visited over 200 towns across the country for a mammoth travel guide that sadly never hit the shelves due to the publisher going bankrupt. Still, it was a hell of a ride and I know every inch of the country, from the oft-visited wineries of the Western Cape, to the scorched national parks of northern Limpopo; from the lonely roads of the Northern Cape to the highest peaks of the Drakensberg.

I can also provide copy on vineyards across four continents, India's  Asiatic lions, travel, food and booze in South Korea or a glimpse into the Hermit Kingdom, North Korea. If your publication needs copy (or photos) on China, Thailand, Angola, Nepal or either of the Koreas, please drop me a line - I might just have what you're looking for.

Other areas of expertise include overlanding through Africa, craft breweries everywhere, independent travel, Canadian wining and dining, touring Northern Ontario, travel for couples and any aspect of life in the Canary Islands.

I also write on topics connected with EFL, volunteering and teaching abroad, particularly in South Korea, Spain and India.

On the site you'll find a selection of previously published articles should you wish to check me out before offering me highly paid freelance work!       


Among others my work has been published in Wanderlust, The Guardian, The Independent, The Toronto Star, AsiaSpa Magazine, Reader's Digest, Real Travel Magazine, BootsnAll.com, Transitions Abroad and Travel Africa.
