About Celeste
I have contributed to nearly 100 titles for Lonely Planet and my recent non-guidebook bylines include National Geographic magazine (print), National Geographic Traveller UK and the LA Times. My happiest travel writing research moments include slowly trundling to Guyana’s Kanuku Mountains in an oxcart, swimming in the bright blue waters of St Paul’s Pool on Pitcairn Island and biking solo around the 2000+ ruins of Bagan, Myanmar. When I'm not writing I'm usually playing with Tahitian pearls, either producing them on my family’s farm in the Tuamotu Archipelago in French Polynesia, or making jewelry that’s been featured in Vogue, the New York Times, and more.
