BiteSize Travel: Historic Treasures of Uzbekistan (ePub)

Peter Clarke was born in Bath, Somerset on 7 July 1957 and grew up in the picturesque village of Bathampton, near the banks of the Kennet and Avon Canal.

He was educated at King Edwards School in Bath before embarking on a career in Banking with National Westminster Bank. After a period of 12 years working in the West End of London he was able to settle down in Hampshire. In 1996, he left the Bank and started to hone his writing skills as a Bid Writer and Project Manager for European Funded projects. This involved extensive travel across Europe to countries including Poland, Lithuania, Latvia, Finland, Italy, Germany and France. This also enabled him to pursue his passion for photography.

Having been self-employed in this field for 15 years, Peter has now changed direction completely and set up Peter's Pocket Guides and Photography, through which he publishes his own series of pocket sized travel guides based on his own travels and illustrated with his own photographs. Guides published to date include Coastal Norway, China, South Africa and now Uzbekistan.

He has also visited India on a number of occasions and has become fascinated with the history of this diverse country and the whole region of Central Asia which ultimately led to his trip to Uzbekistan.

He has had photographs published in Hampshire Life magazine and travel articles in Wanderlust. He has also written and illustrated articles for various online publications.

When not travelling, Peter likes to relax by walking through the lovely Hampshire countryside. He is a qualified cricket umpire so many of his summer weekends are taken up standing in the middle of a green field. He is an avid sports fan following cricket, rugby union, golf and football in particular.
