“If you want hackneyed travel tips and hotel reviews, look elsewhere. Tom is not your average travel writer—he digs deep to find what’s uniquely interesting about a place. His funny, thoughtful observations are sure to delight!”

“One of the funniest writers on all of Substack! You will not regret subscribing, Tom’s pieces never fail to make me laugh out loud.”

“Travel tales from a man who once dreamed of becoming "a younger, sexier Mary Berry" but is now dedicated to sharing recommendations for where to get pizza in Italy, and where to shop for books in London. It's sort of like my blog, but better, because Tom is funnier and more British.”
