" Originally from London, I worked at a hotel in Germany and as a Local Guide in northern Italy before becoming a Tour Director. I have conducted tours all over Europe, North Africa, Asia Minor, Scandinavia, Eastern Europe, Russia, South America, and all 10 provinces of Canada. Today, I call Toronto home. I love to cook, process the pictures I take on tour, and read. Every day, I wake up and have a wonderful, learning experience awaiting me."

" During a summer in Ireland when I was 12, I was bitten by the "travel bug." I lived in Europe and became a Tour Director after graduating with a degree in European Languages. I am never as alive as when I am on the road. The haunting echo of a saxophone on a New Orleans street, the heady evening perfume of Jasmine in bloom, the sweet taste of a beignet, and the joyous "AA-eeeee!" of a Cajun dancer all need to be experienced... observing them from afar is not enough."
" Even though I've lived here my entire life, Canada still blows me away and it shows on my tours. That's why I became a Tour Director, to share my love of this country with others. And whether you're traveling from overseas or just down the road, you're going to have a fantastic time. Sure, you may groan at my jokes, but as soon as you get back home, you'll be sharing them with your friends! Let me share my passion, knowledge, and stories of Canada with you!"
