The virus may have deprived us of so many things over the last 12 months but nothing, not even the pandemic, could prevent one from pursuing his passion. It has been over a year since my last tour but my love for history is now probably stronger than ever. And since love has to be expressed one way or another I am dedicating myself to a new project called 'Spearhead of history' podcast.

In the first episode, award-winning professor and military historian John C. McManus kindly accepted my invitation to revisit the D-DAY operations at Omaha Beach and the role played by the 'Big Red One' in the opening stage of the Normandy campaign.

I fell in love with...Normandy!

I come from a family of teachers. Although I was too ‘wicked’ to see myself sitting at a desk in a classroom, I have always enjoyed sharing my knowledge with others. Well, I did not end up teaching, not in the proper sense of the word anyway, but I was inspired enough to follow my passion: history! And history brought me to Normandy.

This love affair between me and Normandy started ten years ago. I had just earned my BA in History and I was working as a journalist. On my very first visit I fell for the charms of a fascinating region that has such an amazing cultural and natural heritage. There and then I knew I wanted to be a guide. But please mind this is a love story not a fairytale! So, it took a while before I could get to know 'her' secrets and make everything official (professional guide license, transport license etc). Today, six years into this 'relationship', I have a few hundred tours under my belt and I'm eager to show the visitors that my tours are worthwhile, I genuinely love Normandy and everything about its long and tumultuous history!

On a side note, please do not expect me to brag here about my family and their involvement in the war - even if two of my great-grandfathers honourably served their country during WWII - it would be irrelevant. So is nationality or place of birth. As a matter of fact, could these things alone represent the guarantee for a memorable tour? I honestly doubt it.

In my opinion, the real difference can only be made by competence and enthusiasm. The former is the reason why I strive to make each tour as informative as possible whereas the latter leads past clients not just to recommend my services but even to travel back to Normandy to be on another one of my tours. In conclusion, if you like to think of yourself being a prejudice-free individual interested in booking a comprehensive tour conducted by a historian and professional tour guide then look no further!
