About

  My research interests are in three main areas of enquiry: tourism & leisure studies, cultural geography and geography of religion. My interests in tourism & leisure research focus on human-cultural aspects, especially spiritual and religious tourism, pilgrimage, heritage tourism and the sociology of tourism and leisure.
  My research in cultural geography focuses on landscape interpretation, spatial commemoration, and the relationship between landscape and identity. My research in geography of religion focuses on the spatial aspects of pilgrimage sites and places, and on religious themed environments. As a cultural geographer and landscape interpreter I have been very much influenced by the works of Denis Cosgrove, Edward Relph, J.B. Jackson, Donald Meinig and Yi-Fu Tuan.
