Content specialist

Welcome to my website, which gives a flavour of my work as a copywriter, content developer and editor. I've spent more than 25 years in the media and marketing industries, specialising in travel and culture. Along the way I've roamed the world as a Lonely Planet author and recounted my adventures in publications such as BBC Travel, the Guardian and Condé Nast Traveller.

Having lived and worked everywhere from Istanbul to Cape Town, I'm now based back home in the UK. You can get in touch on jamesbains.travel@gmail.com.
