About this title

About the Author

Daniel Robinson researched the award-winning first edition of Lonely Planet's Cambodia guidebook back in 1989, when Phnom Penh - Siem Reap flights stayed over the middle of the Tonlé Sap to avoid ground fire and, for three days, he was the only guest at Siem Reap's only hotel; the story of his misadventures in a mined temple appears in Lonely Planet Unpacked Again. These days his favourite spots for chilling are the (for now) pristine west coast of Koh Kong Island, the foggy ruins of Bokor Hill Station and the rocky promontory at Prasat Preah Vihear, where breathtaking views stretch almost to Angkor. Daniel is based in Tel Aviv and Los Angeles.
