Mark Parren Taylor is a UK-based culture and travel reporter. His work is published throughout the world, and though his assignments can send him anywhere, he prefers East and Southeast Asia. “The speed of change is astonishing,” he says, “and at the same time there’s a satisfying balance between the new and the traditional.” Originally from the UK, David Burden has been living full-time in Bali for more than 10 years, photographing a range of subjects – everything from food and restaurants to travel and editorials. He has travelled extensively around the archipelago on the hunt for waves, new places and smiley faces, but always makes at least two trips to East Sumbawa each year to take some time out and stock up on the local honey. Valentino Luis was born and raised in Maumere, Flores. He later completed his studies at Udayana University in Denpasar, before moving to Germany in 2012 having decided to become a full-time traveller. His love of the mountains and the people in the remote areas of Flores inspired him to establish Shoes for Flores and Flores Rural Library, social programmes focused on education, while he continues to write.
