About me

I founded Travellerspoint with my brother back in 2002. It's still ticking along and has grown to over 1 million members.

I've also helped build various other travel sites including I Know The Pilot, I Want That Flight and this lovely new incarnation of Travel Massive.

Aside from travelling, I'm also a keen gardener and love spending time outside in the weeds.
