Contributor Notes
Regis St Louis grew up in a small riverside town in the American Midwest--the kind of place that fuels big dreams of travel--and he developed an early fascination with world cultures. He spent his formative years studying various Slavic and Romance languages, which served him well on journeys across much of the globe. Regis has contributed to more than one hundred Lonely Planet titles, covering destinations on six continents. His travels have taken him from the Atlas Mountains in Morocco to the volcanic islands of Papua New Guinea and to many grand urban landscapes in Europe, Asia and the Americas. He currently lives in New Orleans.
A London resident for a quarter-century, Steve Fallon has written or contributed to more than 100 different guidebooks, including eight editions of Lonely Planet's guide to London. Who could possibly know their city better than a guidebook author? He is a dual US-Ireland national and lived in Paris as a student, taught English at a university in Poland before the Berlin Wall came tumblin' down, worked as a journalist for a dozen years in Hong Kong and then moved to Budapest, from where he wrote Lonely Planet's first guidebooks to Hungary and Slovenia. Steve's extensive travel experience and knowledge gained from decades of writing guidebooks and travel articles makes him the perfect escort for in the UK and abroad. But London is home and what he knows best. From big-ticket attractions like the British Museum, Westminster Abbey and London Eye--and all the stories and personalities behind them--to the back streets of East London and Hoxton/Spitalfields after dark, Steve will introduce you to a city that most Londoners don't know.
John Lee is an award-wining, Vancouver-based independent travel and feature writer and Lonely Planet guidebook author.
