Tom is greentraveller’s Destinations Manager, heading up the fabulous new sustainable destination guides section of the site as well as managing the Guardian Green Travel List. He also contributes blogs and has worked on the new 'Green London' Map.
Before joining greentraveller he studied English, and has since interned with a partner site of the United Nations Environment Programme as well as spending time with both the Times and the Independent Traveller. Tom particularly enjoys exploring his home country of Wales, and could quite happily spend all his time roaming the wild hillsides of the Brecon Beacons.
