Cheltenham-born and bred, he made his first trip to Cambodia in 1994. That white-knuckle ride hooked him for life. He upped sticks to Phnom Penh in 2007 after more than thirty years in banking back in the UK to join Hanuman. As well as having a serious interest in temples, books (he’s the editor of the guidebook To Cambodia With Love), and pretty much all things Khmer, he is a lifetime supporter of Leeds United and has an insatiable passion for the music of Steel Pulse and Ennio Morricone. His website www.andybrouwer.co.uk includes his widely-read daily blog. Andy has assisted numerous productions during their research and development phase and sometimes works on the ground with crews specializing in the performing arts. He worked with Winds of Angkor, the first major international musical to feature the Khmer Rouge period.
