Local Guide
I grew up in the City of Brighton and Hove but left to study Psychology at University, I would visit the coast from time to time but mostly I lived and worked in London and the historic town of Guildford. Once I retired I returned to my beloved City by the Sea, and turned my mind to local history; what began as a retirement hobby gradually became a new job as a local tour guide. For the last 3 years, I’ve been leading tours in and around Brighton with themes as diverse as ‘Naughty Royals on Holiday’ and ‘Bohemian Brighton’. I’ve also become a local expert on ‘Beach Huts and Bathing Machines!’ I share my interest in architecture, social history, tourism, and darker topics too, like the local crimes that shocked the Nation. My ability to tell captivating stories is what tourists love and remember long after the tour is over.
