Peter lived in Cyprus for three years in the early 90's, where he studied the island's history and its many archaeological sites. In 1995 he completed a 450-mile charity walk in aid of a Paphos hospital and wrote a book on his experiences. "A Walk with Aphrodite" was published in 1998.
He has also written several articles for newspapers and magazines in Cyprus and the UK. Now retired, he lives in the English countryside.
