Profile

Hi - I’m Keith.  I was born and raised in the Gwendraeth Valley on the western edge of the South Wales Coalfield, and I’m now lucky enough to live in a small rural hamlet near St Davids amidst the sounds (and smells!) of North Pembrokeshire. I'm a fluent Welsh speaker - with some German and other European languages, gained from living in Europe for some years. 

Following a career in finance and industry, I'm now indulging in my lifelong passion of sharing my knowledge of Wales and her history.  

I was once asked what words defined Wales.  It's not an easy question, but I'd offer History, Landscape and Community.  The first two speak for themselves, but as important is the sense of Community that binds together the people who live here wherever they came from.  Whether that's watching a rugby game in a pub or just passing the time of day with strangers you'll probably never see again, there's a sense of belonging that's often commented on by visitors and those who've now made Wales their home.  

I have an interest in industrial heritage (based on my family's coalmining history over 3 generations and having worked and visited underground on numerous occaisons), Welsh history, and the outdoors. I can also offer a guided tour around the whole of South West Wales. If you would like to find the site of the colliery where your great grandfather worked as a boy, and combine it with a rural walk and maybe a castle visit – this can be arranged!   I have a fully registered private hire SUV to offer driver guiding for up to 4 passengers - so you can get to places inaccessible to any coach tour.   Closer to my home I can give bespoke tours around the St Davids peninsula and other areas of North Pembrokeshire 

I’d love to have the chance to show you a little of Wales and perhaps help you understand why it’s a country that’s so beloved to those of us who live here.
