Max Hill (they/them) is a writer, educator, and karaoke enthusiast, originally from Vancouver, British Columbia. They have spent time living and working in Vietnam, Thailand, London, Berlin, Tokyo, Osaka, and Toronto, and have published bylines writing about everything from local food and music scenes to housing market trends and profiles of college athletes.
Max is fascinated by the spaces where culture meets urban development, labour meets leisure, and visitors meet locals. Since 2023, they've been working in tourism producing a variety of tours and personalized travel documents to accompany world travellers as they explore the furthest corners of the globe. Their writing is always focused on the human element first, and they believe that nothing can replace the personal touch of lived experience.
When they're not writing, Max lives with their wife and gigantic tabby cat in St. John's, Newfoundland and Labrador. They love reading, cooking, and taking long walks.
