HOME QuirkyTraveller.com is the brainchild of David Whitley, a freelance travel journalist who works for various magazines, newspapers and websites across the world. David has a deep-rooted love of exploring anywhere new for the first time, but the things he enjoys tend not to be the things that are plastered all over the tourist brochures and guide books. Give him a bizarre museum about clocks over a magnificent 14th century cathedral any day. Therefore, the philosophy of QuirkyTraveller.com is very simple: David wants to share the odd attractions he has stumbled across on his journeys, in the hope that like-minded travellers will stop by and enjoy them too. QuirkyTraveller.com will only cover places that David has been to himself, purely because it’s often the case that something that sounds eccentric, unusual and interesting can often turn out not to be. Take the Cookie Museum in Singapore for example; it’s just a biscuit shop. And that’s not much fun at all. David, of course, does longer travel articles than the ones on QuirkyTraveller.com.
