An inquisitive Englishman, Sam Baldwin is the author of two books, a writer of hundreds of articles for newspapers, magazines, and websites; a contributor to one anthology and several guidebooks, and the founder of Breg Design, a Slovenian-flavoured design brand.

Having lived and worked in seven different countries, including Canada, Scotland, Japan and Slovenia, he now splits his time between his home in Austria’s ‘Deep South’, and a three-hundred-year-old sausage-curing hut in the Slovenian Hinterlands which became the subject of his second book: Dormice & Moonshine: Falling for Slovenia.

He writes regularly about his life in rural Austria, and life in Slovenia.
