edit data

A software developer by profession, Paul Kilfoil has combined his love for independent travel with a lifelong hankering to be a writer.

The first five books in his Off Beat Travels series have now been published, and more will be released over the next few years.
Details of Paul Kilfoil's books can be found on GoodReads (of course), as well as on Amazon and Independent Books. ...more
