Simon Reeve is an author and broadcaster. In recent years he's been travelling around little-known regions of the world for a series of BBC and BBC World television documentaries, including Tropic of Capricorn, Equator, Places That Don't Exist and Meet the Stans. Simon is currently travelling around the Tropic of Cancer for a forthcoming tv series. More info at: www.simonreeve.co.uk
Name: Simon
Simon's most recent book and TV series is Tropic of Capricorn, a unique journey that took him around the globe through 10 extraordinary countries. Motivated by a desire to learn more about forgotten corners of the world, Simon headed east through Africa, Australia and South America, discovering breathtaking sights, strange rituals, desperate poverty and exotic wildlife. For the 22,835-mile Tropic of Capricorn marks the southern border of the tropics, and crosses some of the wildest and most spectacular parts of our planet.

Reviews:
Daily Telegraph: "like all the best travellers, Reeve carries out his investigations with infectious relish, and in the realisation that trying to understand the country you're in is not just fascinating, but also hugely enjoyable."
Daily Mail: "Five Stars...Brilliant...a fascinating, illuminating journey...much more than a travelogue."
Radio Times: "moving stories and remarkable sights"

Places That Don't Exist is a brilliant series. I can't tell you how much I want to visit the Caucasus now.
I can't find Taiwan or The Stans online, however. Does anyone know where I can find it, streaming, download, or DVD?
