A Londoner of sorts, Nick Ray comes from Watford, the sort of town that makes you want to travel. He lives in Phnom Penh with his wife, Kulikar, and children, Julian and Belle. He has written for countless guidebooks on the Mekong region, including Lonely Planet's Vietnam, Cambodia, Laos & Northern Thailand and Myanmar books, as well as Southeast Asia on a Shoestring. When not writing, he is often out exploring the remote parts of Cambodia as a location scout and manager for the world of television and film, including everything from Tomb Raider to Top Gear.
Motorbikes are a part-time passion and he has travelled through most of Indochina on two wheels. Jessica Lee first journeyed to Cambodia in the late '90s and tell for its vine-wrapped temples and palm-studded rite-field vistas. She's criss-crossed the country several times since then and this welcome return to the nation saw her exploring remote temples in some of Cambodia's most far-flung corners and checking out the fast-changing scenes upon the sand of the South Coast's islands.
Jess is also an author on Lonely Planet-s Turkey, Egypt and Vietnam tales.
