Newcastle upon Tyne

Newcastle upon Tyne, often shortened to Newcastle, is a city and metropolitan borough of Tyne and Wear, in North East England. Situated on the north bank of the River Tyne, the city grew as an important centre for the wool trade and it later became a major coal mining area. The port developed in the 16th century and, along with the shipyards lower down the river, was amongst the world's largest shipbuilding and ship-repairing centres. These industries have since experienced severe decline and closure, and the city today, is largely a business and cultural centre, with a particular reputation for nightlife.

Wonderful Help!

I’ve had many wonderful trips planned with the help of Candy. Having only travelled mostly within North America, or to predominately English areas of Europe, she helped me be “lost in translation” and be much more comfortable with it. Guiding me on some helpful apps and travel tricks upon arriving really made for an enjoyable trip – as long as I kept my phone and external battery charged over night, but that is another story. Her support is greatly appreciated...
