Craig Turp is an English travel writer and editor. He has for the past decade been the Editor-in-chief of In Your Pocket, the publisher of more than 70 locally-produced city guides across Europe.

When not travelling around the Pocket Empire he lives in Bucharest with his wife and two children, and sometimes writes about everyday life in Bucharest here, as well as sharing his thoughts on Romanian media, politics, travel and tourism.

He is the local licensee of In Your Pocket in Romania, which publishes Bucharest In Your Pocket, a bi-monthly guide to the Romanian capital, as well as the mini-guides Brasov In Your Pocket and Sibiu In Your Pocket, both quarterly guides to two of Romania’s tourism hotspots.

Craig is the author of a number of guide books, including Dorling Kindersley’s (DK) Eyewitness Guide to Hungary, Bucharest City Spots, Berlitz Bulgaria and Berlitz Romania. Craig also co-authored the Insight Guides to Bulgaria and Romania.

Often asked to share his experience and provide insight into travel publishing, Craig was recently a guest speaker at the Local Economic Development Forum in Tbilisi, Georgia and Travel Zoom 2011, in Ljubljana, Slovenia.

Married to Amelia Turp-Balazs, and the proud father of two wonderful children (Maximilian and Valeria), Craig can be contacted by email at: craig@craigturp.com.
