Our Story

Escape the City was started in London by Dom & Rob at the end of 2009.

They wanted to leave their corporate jobs but they found it really tough to find exciting alternatives.

The eternal challenge: 'If not this then what?'

They realised that it is really hard to find work that makes you tick. Work that you can get excited about.

They knew that masses of their corporate friends and colleagues dreamed of 'Doing Something Different' but few actually managed to make the leap.

So... with only a few month's wages to live on they packed it all in and set out on a mission to help others escape.
