I'm a qualified Blue Badge Guide and member of the Scottish Tourist Guides Association, and I've been guiding all over Scotland for over 10 years. After doing my degree in French and Theatre Studies at the University of Glasgow, I came home to Edinburgh and decided to become a tour guide, and I've never looked back. Showing people my beautiful country and helping them to discover its stories is truly the best job in the world!
As a lifelong Edinburgh local, I especially love uncovering hidden sides of my city's history. Back in 2020, when no one was able to travel, I started digging into Edinburgh's queer history and women's history, and produced full-length video tours for people to watch at home. I became passionate about showing a different side of the past, and finding new stories to tell in old places - the kind of stories that don't make it into the guide books.
