To those about to read, I salute you, and to those about to hire, I welcome you into my world. A place where you'll see 100 different sunrises from 100 different beaches, where you'll experience a freshly served paella made with the love that only a Spanish babushka can provide, and where you'll come along for the ride of your life in a thousand rusty tuk tuk's, driving through many bustling cities and dusty villages.
For the last 22 years, I've travelled the globe, on and off. I've wandered multiple wet and windy salt paths and I've gazed down upon many small towns from the top of their domineering mountain ranges above. I have enjoyed the company of new friends who were once strangers and created memories that will last a lifetime.
Content writing will be a new venture for me, boldly going where no man has gone before, not counting the thousands of content writers who are already there, of course, but I love to travel, I love to eat and I love to write (I also love to correct other people's spelling and grammar, but that's another story for another time, arrogantly clears throat) and so I thought, why not take my keen interest in treading the path less.... trod, and make a career from writing about it?
Trod!? Not so arrogant now are ya buddy!?
The truth is, I've wanted to write for a living for many years and I've always had the skills to do it, but we all have that voice of disbelief in our heads, and for some of us, they shout louder than others, but this time, however, I'm going to go forth and conquer my fear of failure while believing in my ability and hopefully becoming successful at it.
Everyone has their own battles with mental health and I'm of no exception, but it makes me who I am and it brings relatability to my writing, so if you are looking for a writer who is real, honest, reliable, punctual, gentlemanly, inspiring, brave, talented, good looking coughs again and happy to put the work in then look no further! I'm also quite funny too so that's a bonus reaches for the Benylin in the cupboard.... Yep, still arrogant, sorry, not sorry.
I will be traveling this big beautiful ball of rock, plastic bottles and fake Ray Bans that we call home within the next few weeks; boots on, destination unknown and babushkas of all nationalities to charm along the way, so join me on an adventure of a lifetime, after all, there are always at least two seats in a tuk tuk and I'll be happy to take you with me!
I don't have a portfolio to share with you yet as this is a brand new chapter in my life, but if you feel even slightly inspired by this little snippet of writing then please get in touch, or if you feel angered, sad or even confused then please get in touch as well, for emotion maketh a maneth feelith aliveth, spoken like a true philosopher, and if I have made you feel something then that's gotta be good, right?
Looking forward to hearing from you soon.
From my eyes to your imagination, shared with love.
Tom. X
