American-born Linda Hoffman moved to Indonesia in 1989. After arriving, she immediately strapped on a backpack and began exploring. Her career as a freelance travel writer, tour leader and guest lecturer for study groups has repeatedly taken her to many of Indonesia's most far-flung locations where she has had many amazing experiences. Based in Yogyakarta for the last ten years, she is always ready for the next adventure. Linda has also authored the Tuttle Travel Pack Indonesia, also available from Tuttle Publishing.
