About me

I was born and brought up in Gibraltar.

In the early 1980's the land border joining Gibraltar with Spain was sealed shut, isolating Gibraltarians within its 2.5 sq miles. Until it fully reopened in 1985, a prohibitively expensive flight to the UK was the best opportunity most Gibraltarians had to experience the world beyond Gibraltar's historic city walls. There was ample time to explore every last corner of Gibraltar; a guidebook was already in the making.

I lived in the UK for 6 years whilst completing a degree in Law, a Masters degree and the Legal Practice Course. Since returning to the Rock in 2004 I have written for newspapers and magazines and contributed to numerous travel blogs and websites. 2009 was a busy year for me as my first book Historic Walking Guides: Gibraltar was published and I also got called to the Gibraltar Bar.

I like writing unusual stories about familiar destinations, though often find myself writing familiar stories about unusual destinations. Basically I'm a sell-out. Specialities include:

- Gibraltar.
- Southern Spain and Morocco.
- Historical travel.

I enjoy travelling alone but also with Angela, my wife and personal 'live-in' photographer.

Recent notable trips – have included Malaga, Chefchaoen (Morocco), Greece and Turkey and inter-railing round Europe .

Forthcoming travel – Alnwick (Northumberland), Southern Portugal and India .
