Simon Foster was born in London and grew up in rural Yorkshire. Family trips first kindled his wanderlust and after graduating in geography from University College London, he set off to seek what he had been studying. He started work as an adventure tour leader in the Middle East in 1997 and was then posted to India and China. Lengthy e-mails home evolved into travel writing and he has contributed to several. Simon now lives with his wife and dog in sunny southern Taiwan and leads Grasshopper Adventures’ (www.grasshopperadventures.com) Taiwan and Silk Road Story photography tours. When he’s not travel writing or tour leading, Simon enjoys, you guessed it, travel, whether to the Philippines or just back home to Yorkshire.
