About me

Edinburgh has been my home for over twenty years. It’s my favourite city in the world! I’m not from Edinburgh originally, so I know what it’s like exploring this amazing city for the first time. There is so much to see and if time is limited it can be overwhelming. Thankfully, I’ve had a long time to get to know the place, so I hope to share some tips to help visitors with their holiday planning. I also want to make this a useful site for local people looking to discover something new in their home town. If you have any comments or questions, or would be interested in working with me, please contact me. I’d love to hear from you!
