Native Scot who gave up his job back in 2005 to set up a business (with my wife) helping travellers to plan self-drive tours of Scotland using itineraries that focus on guiding people to the places that most tourists miss. Previously led conservation holidays in Scotland, so over my 58 years I've been to lots of places that don't feature in other guidebooks. Started to Blog about my journeys around Scotland back in 2007, and my blogging style has evolved through the years. Always try to write about places and stories that readers won't find in other Blogs.
