Tony Oswin
Author of the unique and comprehensive AtoZ Travel Guides
Tony Oswin was born in Nottingham, England.
In his twenties, the seeds were sown for his love affair with Greece during a holiday on the island of Skiathos. Although his career would be focused on business consultancy, he also studied ancient Greek history and archaeology, and through this visited many of the islands of the Ionian and Aegean seas, as well as the mainland of Greece.
He found, though, that there were a few Aegean islands that captivated him. In 2005, he had the opportunity to retire from his business consultancy; he and his partner Carol chose one of these, Thassos, as their new home as British expatriates, selecting to live on the outskirts of Limenas, also known as Thassos Town.
Thassos is a unique and beautiful island situated in the northern Aegean, just off the coast of Eastern Macedonia. Still relatively unknown, it does, though, hold the title of having the most return visits of all the Greek islands. However, Tony realised that what the island lacked was an internationally available and comprehensive travel guide covering all that Thassos offered the visitor. Having already published books on business *, in 2006, he decided to write the ‘A to Z Guide to Thassos‘.
Due to the International success of this book, Tony went on to write the three latest travel guides on the islands of Rhodes, Santorini and Kos. In the future, he looks forward to writing guides on more of his favourite Greek islands.
Tony is Managing Director of the ‘A to Z Guides to the Aegean’.
