About Kerry
Based in the back-of-beyond in the Cambrian Mountains of Wales, I am an award-winning travel writer and photographer. More than anything, I love mountains, hiking, wildlife and places that are freezing cold and forgotten. In my 15 years+ as a Lonely Planet writer, I have authored dozens of guides and traveled to all seven continents – from Antarctica to the Arctic. My most memorable moments include hitchhiking with Thai royalty, freestyle sledging with Tibetan monks, serving beer at Oktoberfest and swimming with whale sharks in Australia – all in the name of a good story. My specialist areas include the UK, Central and Southern Europe and Scandinavia. When not writing for Lonely Planet, I contribute to publications including National Geographic Traveller, The Times and The Independent.
