A Londoner of sorts, Nick harks from Watford, the sort of town that makes you want to travel. He studied history and politics at Warwick University before hitting the road for a life in travel and has worked on about 50 titles for Lonely Planet since his first foray in 1998. Based in Cambodia, he covers countries in Southeast Asia, including Cambodia, Laos, Myanmar and Vietnam, with the occasional diversion to Africa. Aside from Lonely Planet, Nick also works as a location scout and line producer for film and television, including everything from Tomb Raider to Top Gear.
Nick writes articles for leading magazines and newspapers, including The Sunday Times and Wanderlust, and leads and lectures on tours for leading travel companies and international organisations. His work in the world of television and film includes stints as Location Manager on Tomb Raider, Line Producer on Top Gear Vietnam and Producer of the award-winning Cambodian film The Last Reel. Nick lives in Phnom Penh with his wife Kulikar and two children, Julian and Belle. Motorbiking around the Mekong remains a passion and the region remains a great place for two-wheeled adventures.
