I’m a British traveller and co-founder of Beyond Both Shores. I’ve visited over 16 countries and travelled to India four times, spending more than 60 days exploring places like Rajasthan, Kerala and Goa.I first fell in love with India on my initial trip, confusion, culture shocks, incredible food and all, and have since returned to explore it in more depth.Alongside India, I’ve planned and travelled extensively in destinations like Vietnam and Brazil, with a focus on building practical, well-researched itineraries.I write honest, easy-to-follow guides to help first-time visitors plan trips with confidence. From navigating India’s chaos to organising long and short travels to new destinations.
