Paul Oswell

I've been a travel journalist and freelance writer since around 2000, reporting from all corners of the globe for publications including The Guardian, The Sunday Times, The Daily Mail, The Evening Standard and the Press Association. I've also worked on travel guides for Dorling Kindersley.

I edit an online travel magazine: www.shandypockets.com

I'm originally from Lancashire in the UK, but have lived in Japan and London and I'm currently in New Orleans, Louisiana, USA. Yes, the city is good now and no, we're not under water. But thanks for asking.

Many thanks for checking in.
