What is this?

So, here you are, you don't know why, I sure don't know why, and even your computer is probably questioning your decision.

What have you found? A guide to London, a guide to living life, and a guide to travelling as far away as possible from both of the previous two.
Ambitious? Yes. Impossible? Probably. But why not try?

Some of the articles are reviews, some are stories, most start as reviews then turn into stories thus hurtling headlong into a vernacular identity crisis that will probably cause some internet browsers to crash.

This will be the future home of all my writing until I get bored and start a new site called "Why Everything I've Ever Suggested Is Wrong".

Included also is a collation of previous articles spanning 2011 to 2014 in years and spanning 0 to 2014 in quality level, and links to my VoiceMap tour and my side project Beer In The City.

Who is this guy?

Joey is a friendly guy from London doing averagely at making it in the big city as a culture guide and travel writer. He has been to over 50 countries and tends to focus on urban life, immersive experiences and where to find a delicious lunch. He has enjoyed extended time in Sweden and Colombia, and most recently spent two years based in Turkey. He is lucky to be able to grow a beard to help him fit into most places, although the real reason he has one is so he looks old enough not to be ID'd at the cinema.
