explorabilia's User Profile - Atlas Obscura

explorabilia

explorabilia is the instrument, vehicle and labour of love of me, Evan : a medium for showcasing my need to escape, explore, discover and experience the lesser known corners of our world. I am hopelessly attracted to the abandoned and the derelict, to forgotten tales and spaces, alternative histories, obscure facts and niche trivia, and have a talent for weaving these into engrossing, larger-than-life narratives to share with those who enjoy a memorable tour.
