About the Author
Since deciding that growing up and getting a proper job was highly overrated at the tender age of 18, New Zealander Jessica Lee has travelled extensively in Asia, Africa and Latin America. A small obsession with houmous and a large obsession with nomadic people led her to the Middle East in 2004 where she fell in love with the Arabic language and the incredible hospitality of the people. She has lived there full-time since 2007, working as a tour leader as well as a writer. When not on the overland trail between Cairo and Istanbul, she can usually be found among the fairy chimneys of central Anatolia where she is attempting to renovate a cave-house.

An excellent guide for exploring Lebanon, Oct 27 2011
By Margot C. - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Lebanon Handbook (Hardcover)
I really enjoyed using this guide as it had a good mix of historical, cultural and practical tips that made my first journey around Lebanon much easier. It's packed full of helpful tips for independent travellers with great public transport information as well as accommodation reviews. It's also really handy if you want to get off the beaten track and explore some lesser known sights. Loved Lebanon! Found the people friendly, the ruins amazing and the food delicious. Can't wait to go back.
