About Regis
I grew up in a small riverside town in the American Midwest — the kind of place that fuels big dreams of travel — and I developed an early fascination with world cultures. I spent my formative years studying various Slavic and Romance languages, which served me well on journeys across much of the globe.
I have contributed to more than one hundred Lonely Planet titles, covering destinations on six continents. My travels have taken me from the Atlas Mountains in Morocco to the volcanic islands of Papua New Guinea and to many grand urban landscapes in Europe, Asia and the Americas. I currently live in New Orleans.
