About Me

Hello, Bonjour, Guten Tag, Gegroet,

I was born in Amsterdam and moved to Cambridge to improve my English.  While I was in Cambridge I met my husband who was studying vetinerary medicine.  Once he graduated we started a family and moved to Scotland - to Glenisla - one of the Angus Glens.

After completing a Business degree as a mature student in 1990 I moved to Edinburgh, an architectural masterpiece, and broadened my horizons.  
My main interests include architecture, history, farming and gardening.  Even though I live in central Edinburgh I am lucky enough to have a fabulous garden; when not on tour I can more often than not be found in the garden!

I look forward to having the pleasure of being your guide in beautiful Scotland be it for a morning,  afternoon, full day or short extended tour.
Please contact me (contact information listed above) so that we can discuss your individual requirements.
