About the author

Following a peripatetic childhood ambling amiably between three boarding schools and seven different family homes, Julian got the travel bug early and has maintained an enthusiasm for it despite masking an adventurous life with a more conventional desk career in public relations.

When not office bound he has managed to travel off the beaten track through jungles, remote seas, swamps, mountains and veld. He has been arrested, mugged, shot at, charged by wild animals, got himself spectacularly lost in the desert (so is not always the luckiest travel companion) and developed a taste for dry martini cocktails.

More by accident than design he has accumulated a wealth of experiences engaging with nomadic tribes, smugglers and wild animals of all imaginable shape and size, while still finding time to donate blood to both the UK NHS and rather too many mosquitoes.

In addition to his communications activities, Julian is author of three books: The Cape Crusaders - about his experiences driving a Dennis fire engine from the northern-most tip of Europe to the southern-most point in Africa; The Book of Cringe - a truly corny collection of Dad jokes; and 150 Travel Tips - life hacks based on based on his experiences when travelling the world.

A Fellow of the Royal Society of Arts, Julian holds no qualifications worthy of bragging rights but is an accomplished after dinner speaker, available for lectures and other speaking engagements on both his travels and experiences in the corporate jungle.
