Biographie:
Daniel Robinson : Coordinating Author Daniel has been writing about Southeast Asie since 1989, when he researched the award-winning 1st edition of Lonely Planet's guides to Vietnam and Cambodia. Since then he has taken a special interest in tropical rainforest habitats and the role that sustainable tourism can play in their conservation. In Borneo, Daniel is special fond of strolling the Kuching waterfront at sunset, slurping Sarawak laksa, tramping through Gunung Gading National Park in search of giant Rafflesia flowers, watching orangutans cavort in Semenggoh's jungle canopy and taking longboat rides up remote rivers. Daniel, who holds a BA in Near Eastern Studies from Princeton University, writes for e variety of magazines and newspapers. including the New York Times. Adam Karlin : Adam has previously researched mainland Malaysia for Lonely Planet's Malaysia, Singapore & Brunei guide and jumped at the chance to head to Borneo for some wild jungle fun. And oh what fun. In the course of his research he hitched a ride on a jeep into the Maliau Basin, burbled happily at cuttlefish in the Semporna Archipelago, tossed a fish head to a water monitor, got ankle deep in bat shit in caves and wasted on Johnny Walker in KK and came close to e perfect travel moment when he witnessed a wild orangutan swing over his head - with baby attached. Adam has researched and written over 20 Lonely Planet guides. Richard Waters : Richard was born in the north of England and seems to have spent most of his life escaping it. His first travels were around Europe as a teenager, then Central America and US by camper van during the last days of the Guatemalan civil war. These days he satisfies his itchy feet writing for newspapers such as the Sunday Times. Independent, Tefegraph and Daily Mail, and magazines Elle and CNN Traveller. Lonely Planet seems to send him to jungles rather e lot - if it's not watching hornbills in Borneo ifs listening for tigers in Laos. He lives with his fiancée and two kids in the Cotswolds.
