  • Excellent series

    I have ‘binge listened’ to this series while painting the outside of the house. The series is excellent and well worth the investment of time. Some really fascinating details and stories that bring the places to life, presented in a light hearted but serious way. Can’t wait to visit the places I have not yet been to.
