Is this work? Sure, but I'm cheating, for nothing brings me more joy than sharing the beauty and secrets of my country with visitors. Hi! Xoán here (that's pronounced like 'Séan' but with a little twist). I'm a geographer with a solid academic background and licensed official guide. I'm fluent in several languages, from my native Galician to English, with a bit of an Irish (Corkonian!) accent. So I'm crazy about culture, geography, nature, history and stories. Oh yes indeed, I love telling stories about how things were and how things are, trying to make sense of everything around us in the process, and answering all the questions you may have. Actually, I always try my best to give people a passionate but real experience when visiting a place, "living it" as a local would do. Do feel free to contact me for custom and off the beaten track tours too. PS. Full disclosure: I'm a teetotaler, so I might not be your best option for wine tours ;) Licensed official guide (Heritage Guide). BA, MA and MPhil in Geography, with an specialisation in Cultural Geography and Territorial Planning. Entrepreneur. I am a driver but please note that on some tours I may arrange for a separate driver, depending on traffic and parking restrictions in the locations to be visited.
