What started out as compulsory hikes with his father as a resentful pre-teen, developed into a lifelong passion for hiking through nature. With the 800km Camino Santiago and many hikes around Britain, South Africa and Europe behind him, Angus is now in 2025 identifying and developing walking trails through history, culture and cuisine, always in areas of natural beauty.

As a graduate in International Relations with a deep interest in European history and having covered a number of destinations on the continent, this journalist/travel writer and guide is partnering with appropriate local operators to conduct walking tours in destinations offering a winning combination of natural beauty, culture and cuisine.

Featuring a combination of lesser and better known destinations and sometimes untouched natural landscapes, these seven-day walks will include local cuisine and a blend of rustic and beautifully preserved towns and cultures.

In the northern hemisphere spring Angus will be trialing the relatively unknown Romania and north and south Cyprus, breathing in the seasonal scents, connecting with characters and tasting the cuisine. Paving the way for you, the client. The Balkans, Slovenia, the Netherland’s South Limburg hills and Sri Lanka on the horizon.

Write-ups will feature from Romania in late May 2025, with first itinerary dates likely to be offered in the last quarter of 2025. We invite you to write to us with your wish list of hikes and walking holidays. Angus is also available via phone or video-call to talk through such ideas and wishes
