I am a British writer living in Norfolk, England. For the last 15 years I have lived and travelled in the Russian-speaking world, and other parts of Eurasia, as a student, translator, editor and wine & spirits analyst.
EURASIAN ECHOES is a collection of stories and photographs, about the people and places that have been part of my travels through Russia, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan, Armenia, Georgia, Azerbaijan and Turkey.
There are also links to my writing and photography in the books Kidding Around, the Wisden Almanack, The Expeditioner’s Guide to the World and Remarkable Cricket Grounds, and publications including Russia Beyond The Headlines, Elsewhere Journal, Caravanistan and The Calvert Journal.
I hope you will enjoy reading!
