Biographie de l'auteur :
Born and raised in the UK in a town that never merits a mention in any guidebook (Andover, Hampshire), Brendan Sainsbury spent the holidays of his youth caravanning in the English Lake District and didn't leave Blighty until he was 19. He's since squeezed 70 countries into a sometimes precarious existence as a writer and professional vagabond. In the last 11 years, he has written more 40 books for Lonely Planet from Castro's Cuba to the canyons of Peru. Kate Armstrong has spent much of her adult life traveling and living around the world. A full-time freelance travel journalist, she has contributed to more than 50 Lonely Planet guides and trade publications and is regularly published in Australian and worldwide publications. She is the author of several books and children's educational titles. Ray Bartlett has been travel writing for nearly two decades, bringing Japan, Korea, Mexico, and many parts of the United States to life in rich detail for top-industry publishers, newspapers, and magazines. His acclaimed debut novel, Sunsets of Tulum, is set in Yucatán and was a Midwest Book Review 2016 Fiction pick. Among other pursuits, Ray surfs regularly and is an accomplished Argentine tango dancer. Like many California natives, Celeste Brash now lives in Portland, Oregon. She arrived, however, after 15 years in French Polynesia, a year and a half in Southeast Asia and a stint teaching English as a second language in Brighton, England - among other things. She's been writing guidebooks for Lonely Planet since 2005 and her travel articles have appeared in publications from BBC Travel to National Geographic. She's currently writing a book about her five years on a remote pearl farm in the Tuamotu Atolls and is represented by the Donald Maass Agency, New York.
