Notă biografică
Born and educated in the UK, Lucy Mallows spent 16 years in Budapest and Brussels, working as a reporter, travel writer and translator. As a writer, she contributed regularly to many international dailies and magazines, and wrote guidebooks (including three for Bradt) and articles on countries from Iceland to Portugal. An expert on central Europe who spoke seven languages, including Russian, Hungarian and a fair attempt at Slovak, her passions were travel, music, swimming, photography and football. She visited Bratislava regularly for 30 years, always marvelling at the city’s ability to regenerate and improve on its already spectacular setting and world-class facilities’. Sadly, Lucy passed away early in 2018.
Tim Burford studied languages at Oxford University. In 1991, after five years as a publisher, he began writing guidebooks for Bradt, firstly on hiking in east-central Europe and then on backpacking and ecotourism in Latin America. A regular visitor to Bratislava, he has always loved the city and was very happy to have the chance to update this book. While working on this edition, he spent the majority of his visit walking everywhere (and occasionally using the new bike-sharing system) to check every detail; he also enjoyed delving into the history and culture of central Europe, where he’s worked for almost 30 years.
