Hi, I'm Dominic and I am traveling the UK during September with my girl friend. We’re doing the West Highland Way for my birthday.

I work as a Whitewater Rafting Guide in the Summer and as a Snowmobile guide in the Winter both in the USA. I enjoy adventuring outdoors (hiking, rafting, skiing, camping, mountaineering, etc.), sports, reading, chess and of course, traveling. One of my biggest passions is learning, particularly about history and local culture through making friends, visiting museums and historical sites, attending the arts, festivals or sporting events or simply going for a walk. I look forward to getting to know you during my stay.

If you have any questions just ask!
