William Davis

Joined Atlas Obscura in 2017

I only contribute places I have visited! I'm a middle school teacher in San Antonio, and I love to travel to interesting places. I have visited Dubai, New York City, London, Paris, and many more places to come! I love showing my students pictures of my travels to encourage them to travel the world, too.
