I am an English Literature and History graduate; who is currently working towards being a published author... and I also work in the Scottish tourism industry! I've been a tour guide in numerous locations over the years. I love connecting with new people and sharing my culture. I also love sharing literary spots and stories with likeminded people, as well as suggesting historical sites, shops, walks, day trips, hints and hidden gems. 

Last year I spent time in Australia on a working holiday, touring the East Coast and then working in Perth. I've also been an au pair in Madrid, so I'd love to share my experience of these solo ventures too. 

Overall, I am a generalist and I love trying new things. If you're looking to come to Scotland and need advice then look no further, I've got you covered.
