Constantine's seat of power after Rome went down the bog. Largest Roman city north of the Alps and surprisingly well preserved. Romans in Germany? Who'd a thunk it?
The mediaeval equivalent of opening a Whole Foods if you want to gentrify a town in the arse end of nowhere
"I really like Belgium" is a phrase you don't hear often. I love the place. Maybe not Brussels but Flanders is fantastic.
Of all the great cities in the world, Constantinople is far and away my favourite. I had wanted to go since I was a child and it was worth the wait
A guide to the best cave diving sites in France, from the Haute Marne , through the Jura and down to the Mediterranean coast.
I wrote this a few years ago as a simple guide to rebreather diving. Rebreathers aren't complicated but there are a ton of books written about diving that make it sound like alchemy. They're bollocks, generally, and usually more about cementing some high-falutin' instructor's position as a mega-guru. I'm just a punter so published it anonymously. Or I could just be saying that because no-one really knows who wrote it. Who cares? Buy the book.
