Paul Crask

Paul Crask is a writer, photographer, and artist from the north of England, based on the Caribbean island of Dominica since 2005.

For nearly two decades, his work focused on travel and place. He has written numerous freelance travel articles, authored two Bradt guidebooks, and designed and published several independent travel and culture magazines. In 2024, he stepped away from the travel industry. He continues to write and take photographs, but with a quieter, more personal focus — and has recently returned to visual art.

Paul is an arts graduate of the University of Leeds and studied in the former East Germany at the Karl Marx University of Leipzig. Alongside London, he has lived and worked in Germany and Japan.

He lives with his wife — who was born in Dominica — near the village of Giraudel, on the western slopes of Morne Anglais. He grows and processes coffee, travels whenever possible, and works across writing, photography, and art, exploring place, memory, and lived experience.
