He has worked variously as a newspaper reporter and columnist, a ‘spectacularly inept’ railway clerk, a rock and jazz drummer, a radio and television scriptwriter and presenter, and a magazine editor. He has authored or edited several books, while translating countless Dutch tourist guides, articles and websites for a living.The first printed edition of ‘A Nonsense of Direction’ appeared in 1992, quickly followed by a second as it became something of a minor classic in the ‘offbeat travel tales’ category, featuring Citroën’s legendary little 2CV.In 2013 Terence and his wife and travel partner, Elise, survived a ferocious African wildfire which consumed their home and almost everything they possessed in just ten minutes. With two small suitcases they arrived at a new base – a triangular Napoleonic-era former village café in rural France – to start again, still setting off regularly, ‘not just anywhere; everywhere’.view less
