Where is this guy from? edit

My real name is Michael. I live in South Yorkshire, a county in England.

Why did I get involved with WikiVoyage? edit

Frustration with printed guidebooks being out of date, or just plain wrong! My turning point was a well-known publisher's guide to Venice, Italy, which gave the location of a particularly good vegetarian restaurant. Annoyingly, the restaurant was nowhere near where the book said it was - and never has been!

As an IT consultant, my work often involves reading and writing project documents, and contributing to reference books. It's nice to write something a little more lighthearted once in a while.

What have I written so far? edit

I have contributed to the following (very short) list of pages. I'm aiming to write more as soon as I have time!
