Guide Bio
I’m native Londoner and a life-long musician with a degree in politics & modern history. I worked for the civil service for a few years before deciding to cycle to Paris in 2008 and on to Barcelona in 2010. I recorded an EP in Barcelona and then moved to Madrid, Copenhagen and Ghent before falling for a girl from home and coming back to where it all began.
Travelling and learning has given me a gift to be able to fit local knowledge into a global picture, whether it’s seeing wars from different angles, tracing philosophical developments, or seeing street artists cris-cross the globe.
I love meeting people and showing them around, whether it’s my own city or one of the many cities where I’ve lived, played, and guided. I always try to get below the skin of the city while keeping the tours fun, funny and entertaining.
