About me
I first visited France as a 17 year old, hitchhiking down the west coast, across the Pyrénées and around the Mediterranean coast. The following year I returned with three school friends and drove 3000kms of French country roads in a Morris Thousand Traveller. I have never forgotten the hospitality of the French people we met on our travels, the glories of the open road and the fabulous scenery.
Later in life I have had the opportunity to live in France and to write about its diverse culture, history and destinations via my day job as Editor-in-Chief of France Today magazine and Publisher of BonjourParis.com. In 2020 I won the award for Best Destination Feature
at the Atout France Travel Media Awards. Some more of my journalism can be found here.
I grew up in India, Pakistan, Iran, Dominican Republic, Bermuda, Italy and England. I divide my time these days between Bath, UK and the South of France.
I don't have much time to devote to social media so if you'd like to hear from me from time to time about my writing, or you want to contact me please use the form on this page.
