Welcome!
Twomey Travel (2me Travel) represents the synthesis of years of travel, writing and sharing experiences. Although a published author, Patrick began writing his first real blog in 2014 while working in Peru.
As an international tour guide / operator and lecturer, Patrick is part of a much larger community of ethical travellers.
Throughout these many pages are fun discussions of trips, destinations and, from time to time, ethical issues.
Much of this 2me Travel site focuses on the Americas in general, but in no way limits itself. This is first and foremost a site dedicated to the love of travel! It is governed by the support of group travel and strongly influenced by ethical awareness. Please enjoy, share, participate and join our journeys!
