I am a British writer and journalist, linguist and editor. Since 2005 I have travelled across Eurasia — working in the cities of Central Asia, Eastern Europe and the Caucasus, and wandering through their wildernesses.
I am the senior editor of The Times of Central Asia, and the author of Getting Out: The Ukrainian Cricket Team’s Last Stand on the Front Lines of War.
LIFE IN CENTRAL ASIA is a collection of posts from my journeys in Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan and Uzbekistan — as well as more stories and photographs from elsewhere in Eurasia: Turkey, Georgia, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Ukraine, Russia and Mongolia.
On these pages you can find my writing for Lonely Planet, Open Central Asia, Wisden Cricketers’ Almanack, The Geographer and other media; my translations of some books and poems from Central Asia; and interviews and media appearances in English and Russian.
Twenty-five of my best photographs from Central Asia are available to buy as high-quality wall prints on the Life in Central Asia store.
