I'm a descendant of President James Buchanan's brother (John Buchanan). Educated in political science and law. I've resided in the Philadelphia area for over 50 years with over 25 of those years within the historic Center City region of Philadelphia. I've traveled to Europe, the UK, Scandinavia, the Mediterranean, and throughout North America (including Canada & Mexico). I'm personable, entertaining, and most people say I have a good sense of humor. I appreciate all sorts of people and cultures, and enjoy showing my city to all. You'll have a unique journey through Center City Philadelphia with me, and I'll guide and advise you as to how to get the most out of your visit to America's first capital. Licensed Driver None (except any illegal activities). Possible availability on days listed as being unavailable.
