I qualified as a Wales Official Tourist Guide in 2000 and completed my Degree in Tourist Guiding in 2010. I subsequently qualified for South West England in 2011 and Liverpool Region in 2013. I have worked in many different sectors of the tourism industry and driver-guide with a professional PSV driving licence. I am a member of the Institute of Tourist Guiding, Guild of British Tourist Guides, the Tourism Society and the Tourist Guide Associations for Wales, Liverpool City Region, North West England & Pembrokeshire. I work throughout the UK and overseas promoting my home country of Wales. Besides travel, another major passion is sport. I am an enthusiastic golfer and a regular player of football.
