Personalised travel guides

What I offer

In my opinion, travelling is one of the greatest joys in this world. It allows us to see exciting places, meet new people and broaden our horizons. I have been a traveller all my life, and it is a firm part of my identity. 

My favourite way to travel is to visit places where I know people who can show me around. Friends who know me and have similar tastes in finding hidden gems off the beaten track, unusual activities, and interesting cafés or restaurants, to mention some things to do. My personalised travel guide gives you exactly that – an itinerary that matches your tastes so you have the best experience on your trip. 

 

My approach

  • Firstly, we discuss what experience you are looking for and any specific requirements that need to be met. 

  • Then I will ask you for references of things you like, and I will come back to you with a first round of suggestions. We will then narrow them down together until we have a final selection. 

  • Finally, I will also provide general travel tips for the place you are visiting to make your trip as smooth and pleasant as possible. 

 

Options available

As I want to offer you very personalised guides, the places available are those that I know well. Currently these are:

  • London and the United Kingdom

  • Japan (Tokyo, Kyoto and around the main island Honshu)

  • Venice, Italy

  • Germany 

 

Credentials 

I have previously been published as a contributor for the German Marco Polo travel guide series for Venice.
