ABOUT THE AUTHOR

WRITTEN BY

TNT Editorial Team

The TNT Magazine editorial team is an eclectic mix of travel nerds, city obsessives and people who've spent too long writing about nightclubs. Covering the UK, London, travel and culture with the same outsider perspective the magazine was founded on in 1983. Live life and travel. It's been TNT's mantra for over 40 years, and it's still what we're all about. Getting the most out of where you are, making the most of where you're going, and helping readers navigate the practicalities of working, living, finding adventure and having a blast along the way. Fiercely independent, globally trusted and occasionally a bit opinionated. Politically agnostic, never biased or influenced, just great content without a rose-tinted view or hidden agenda.
