Gil's World children's travel guides and story book adventures.
Thank you for stopping by.
Hi, my name is Gilgamesh...my friends call me Gil. Gil the Travelling Gecko!
I live in an airport and am always travelling to new and exciting places around the world. I hide in one of the suitcases that pass by my front door at the airport. Then, a few hours later I arrive in a new country.
How exciting is that?
Why don’t you join me on my adventures around the world. Or as I call it, Gil's World.
You can see them through my eyes. Together we can discover what the different destinations are like, who lives there, what they eat, how they talk.
Maybe we will even meet some new friends.
After I have visited a new place I write a book about my visit. I have been writing a growing number of children's travel guides. My children's travel books are part guide and part story and a great way to learn some foreign words and local phrases which you can use.
You can buy my books on Amazon or take a quick peak at my travel books here.

Gil's World Christmas Special
Gil Visits Santa in Lapland
Gil is sitting at home on Christmas Eve, when he finds an envelope addressed to Santa Claus. He knows that if he puts it into one of the mail bags at the airport, that it will not arrive on time. He decides to make a last minute adventure to find Santa at the North Pole and deliver it himself.
Will he find Santa in time? You will have to buy the book to find out.

My new 'Gil's World' travel guide book is available!
Gil Visits The Bahamas ...
Gil gets called a ‘parrot ass’ because he talks so much. His new friends also 'skylark' with him, which means they poke fun at him.
He tries ‘Benni cakes and Duff’ and really likes them. Gil discovers that ‘switcha’ is really refreshing to drink, but you can’t eat ‘potcakes’.
You can buy Gil Visits The Bahamas here in colour or here in black and white

"To travel is to learn"
- Gil the Travelling Gecko
When you travel you learn about new languages, new places, new cultures, new foods, new music and new ways to look at things.
Best of all you get to meet new friends with me at Gil's World .
In the coming months I will be releasing several new books about my adventures as I visit different countries.
I will learn a few words of the language, try some of the local food and meet some new friends.

Gil the Travelling Gecko
Gil enjoys to learn new languages but sometimes he misunderstands some of the foreign words. Sometimes, he ends up saying things he didn't mean. These words can get him in trouble, but mostly they make his friends laugh.
Gil dashes headlong into every adventure with an open mind and a child-like curiosity which is fun for everyone.
