About the host
Hosted by Stewart, Dickison
I grew up in the highland, and after 20+ years of working and studying in the UK and abroad, I returned to my native Scotland with my family. My wife and I both work remotely in the video games sector. When we are not working, we love nothing more than spending quality time with our little girl, hiking in the highland mountains and chilling by the loch. I am a big fan of motorcycles and enjoy biking around Loch Ness. What we enjoy the most about being a host is the opportunity to meet people from all different cultures and nations.
You’ll be hosted by me and my wife, Xia, and you might get a friendly hello from Neo, our family dog.
