"Out and About With Vincent Burke" is a travel podcast featuring exciting places, fun activities and interesting people across the UK.
I hope you'll come Out and About with me regularly.
The latest episode of 'Out and About With Vincent Burke' is from the 'vibing' city of Manchester, my home town.
In the episode I chat to Helen Hipkiss, Marketing Manager for the Hyatt Regency Manchester, a beautiful modern hotel in the heart of the university quarter, about why the hotel and Manchester are so special to her. Helen lives and work in the city and talks about its unique 'vibe'.
I also get the thoughts of another Mancunian and others from around the world as to why they've come to the city and what they love about it.

South Place Hotel - the coolest hotel in the City of London?
With its own art gallery and an artist in residence, South Place Hotel is possibly the coolest place to stay in the City of London.
It's also brilliantly placed, being right next to Liverpool Street station and the state-of-the-art Elizabeth line.
I popped in recently and chatted to Head of PR and Marketing Suzie Holland and General Manager Dean Culpan (pictured) about what makes it so special.

The transformation of Kings Cross
Welcome to the first ever 'Out and About With Vincent Burke'.
This episode looks at the transformation on Kings Cross in central London. Twenty years ago the area was blighted by drug-dealing, prostitution and other criminal activity. However, it has been regenerated into one of London's most vibrant communities. It is now an attractive business location, research hub and cultural destination.
In this episode, I speak to Dr Gunes Taylor from The Crick Institute and several people connected to the Kings Place arts centre.
