About Me

Ever since my early visits to Greece, Alexander was my faithful travel companion. Eventually, I followed him into modern-day countries such as Albania, Bulgaria, Turkey, Syria, Jordan, Egypt, Libya, Iran and Uzbekistan. Standing on the banks of the Granicus, skirting the Zagros Mountains, or crossing the Oxus River on foot gave me a totally different feeling and perspective of the events than what is recounted otherwise. I returned home with scores of stories about the heritage left by Alexander and the Hellenistic Era he initiated. My travels and encounters with Alexander were a most wonderful and exhilarating experience, which I love to share with my readers. This led me to writing my book, 'Alexander the Great was here, and so was I', which can be used as a travel guide; but also as a historical guide to follow Alexander the Great, making his way through history.
