About the Author
Expliquémoslo como es debido: este ha sido el cuarto viaje de Meg Worby a la espléndida Tasmania, su séptimo viaje a la templada Queensland y su 780 reencuentro con el estado de Australia Meridional, en el que nació y más tiempo ha vivido. Es una antigua integrante de los equipos de idiomas, editorial, web y publicidad en Melbourne y Londres de Lonely Planet.
Anthony Ham es un fotógrafo y escritor independiente especializado en España, el sur y este de África, el Ártico y Oriente Medio que colabora con periódicos y revistas de Australia, Gran Bretaña y EEUU. En el 2001, tras años de recorrer mundo, se enamoró perdidamente de Madrid en su primera visita, y antes de un año estaba de vuelta con un billete solo de ida, sin hablar nada de español y sin conocer a nadie en la ciudad. Cuando 10 años más tarde por fin dejó la capital de España, hablaba español con acento madrileño, se había casado con una lugareña y Madrid se había convertido en su segundo hogar. De nuevo en Australia, Anthony sigue recorriendo el mundo en busca de historias.
Charles Rawlings-Way es un veterano autor de viajes que ha escrito más de 30 guías de Lonely Planet, incluidas las de Singapur, Toronto, Sídney, Tasmania, Nueva Zelanda, el Pacífico del Sur y Australia, así como numerosos artículos. Tras haber trabajado en arquitectura, cartografía, como director de proyectos y actuando en la calle durante una serie de años, empezó a viajar para Lonely Planet en el 2005, y no ha parado desde entonces. “¿Qué me espera en la dirección que no tomo?” (Jack Kerouac).
Benedict Walker nació en Newcastle, Australia, y creció en los barrios de las afueras, pasando los fines de semana que podía y los largos veranos en la playa. Aunque siente una atracción especial por el tipo de montañas que encontró en las Rocosas de Canadá y en los Alpes japoneses y suizos, la playa la lleva en la sangre. Su primera colaboración para Lonely Planet fue Japón, en el 2008, y ha tenido la buena fortuna de volver al país para LP otras tres veces. Se puede decir que está viviendo su sueño, aunque la vida del viajero tiene sus momentos buenos y malos. Titulado en Comunicación y agente de viajes de profesión, Ben recorrió el planeta entre los 20 y los 30. Habla japonés perfectamente y también ha escrito y dirigido una obra teatral; ha hecho gira por Australia como responsable de logística de transporte de importantes festivales de música y está experimentando de nuevo con la fotografía y el cine.
