Charleston, City at the Crossroads

I was 14 years old the first time I visited Charleston and from that moment on I was in love with this historic city. I was lucky to move here with my family in 2009. Charleston is a city that touches all of your senses - from putting your hand on a 100-year-old piece of iron work, to peeking through a gate and seeing an amazing garden, to the smell of pluff mud (this is an acquired scent) or the hint of the aroma of the Confederate Jasmine, to finding a pottery shard on the streets and wondering what story it holds. With 350 years of history there is so much to explore. I love to share these intricate stories, so my tours focus on the different threads of Charleston's history; American Revolution, Charleston Renaissance, Ironworks and Women's history to mention a few. As Dubose Heyward wrote "They tell me she is beautiful, my City, That she is colorful and quaint, alone. Among the cities. But I, I who have known, Her tenderness, her courage, and her pity, Have felt her forces mold me, mind, and bone, Life after life, up from her first beginning. How can I think of her in wood and stone! I would love to share her story with you.
