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
About Me:
 
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"

Mr. Reeve you desperately need to go to India. It is by far the most magical and beautiful place on the planet.

i am so shocked how you can talk or comment about history without any deep education on history, the video about nagorno karabakh showed me how BBC recruit such people to make TV documentaries. Karabakh wasnt goven by Stalin to Azerbaijan , Nagorno karabakh orginally belonged to the Karakoyunlular and Akkoyunlular, whoch is known as the orgin of my people azerbaijan , Armenia was not existed as a country, if you have been a little bit educated you would have spend some time reading books rather than talking wrong information just because of the sake of creating TV documentery, shame on you not knowing your stuff and commenting about it , shame on BBC to recruit such people who doest know about history at all

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?
