Simon is unassuming and gentle, but brave too (vis the saltwater croc!) I do like his respectful attitude to the people he meets. Terribly depressing though isn't it? Pollution everywhere, even behind the scenes in the Maldives. One despairs. |

When he went further down the coast and showed you exactly what had happened there, then told you that it would be even *worse* back in the National Park, well........... ??? But he does it all so well, showing you The Beauty first, then The Beast. He has a Facebook page too, which he runs himself, Eliza.. Simon Reeve - Facebook |
