San Franciso Pocket Precincts
I was commissioned in 2019 to produce a comprehensive guide to San Francisco’s precincts for Hardie Grant Travel. After spending some time living and exploring this city, I think the guide's the perfect companion for those heading to the Bay Area. Full of all of my favourite locations to taste, be inspired, chill out and connect with
the culture.
Half-Full Adventure Maps
The maps are designed to help you travel like you've just been handed a hit-list of things to do by your best friend who grew up just around the corner. Providing you with a set of full day plans to use on autopilot. Perfect for the time-poor traveller with an edging fear of missing out, and for those who want a hard and fast list of what simply must be experienced.
Through 2016 and 2017 I researched my own series of walking maps for a collection of cities I truly love. In 2018 I was lucky enough to have these published by Hardie Grant. The series covers San Francisco, New York, Tokyo, London and Melbourne.
The maps come with a semi hard card case - to stop them from getting thrashed as you walk around site seeing.
The rear side of the map is designed for you to both store your plans, and ideas that come accross before you leave and also to store your discoveries along the way. We actually
The first thing I do whenever I go to a new city is ask what the local hits are. If your traveling solo - it's always great to have the sounds of the scene to keep you company.. so I made some playlists.
When you're done - I think it's only right to pay your discoveries forward. I wan't you to send them on to someone who's heading to the same city soon.
Adelaide Pocket Precincts
I was commissioned in early 2017 to produce a comprehensive guide to Adelaide’s precincts for Hardie Grant Travel. I think it makes an excellent reference for anyone you know looking to visit Adelaide, and for locals looking to get out and see some areas they aren’t overly familiar with.
I’ve always strived to discover both the institutional and contemporary aspects of Adelaide that make it unique. Located in such a compact area it's seamless to get out of town and see more than just the regular tourist spots..

Respect goes out to international students everywhere - It takes real guff to leave what you know behind, grit your teeth and to dive into something new. I never saw International Students as nerdy desk sleepers - I saw them as cultural adventurers stepping off the tarmac into the great unknown - unlike the common traveler, these crusaders are off to spend an undetermined time re-stacking their entire existence upon something completely foreign.
