about me
Travel isn’t just about seeing new places; it’s about what happens in between. I write my experiences as they unfold, with all the comedy, mishaps, and surprises included. Over the years, I’ve become part of a growing circle of non-fiction authors who capture the real side of life with no filters, no rehearsed speeches, just raw storytelling.
As a husband, traveller, and writer, my adventures with Leslie show how love and humour can carry you through anything. That’s why many readers consider me among their favourite authors of non-fiction, because I remind them that life is unpredictable, but always worth celebrating.
