Phoebe SmithBy day Phoebe Smith is an award-winning travel writer, broadcaster and presenter as well as Editor-at-Large of Wanderlust travel magazine and Sleep Storyteller-in-Residence at calm.com where she writes scripts for the likes of Stephen Fry, Joanne Lumey and Danai Gurira. By night she and amp;rsquo;s an extreme-sleeping outdoors adventurer who thrives on heading to the wildest locations she can find in order to sleep in the strangest places she can seek out. Phoebe was the first person to sleep at all the extreme points of mainland Britain and amp;ndash; including the centremost location and amp;ndash; which she did solo, on consecutive nights in 2014. In December 2017 she gave up her Christmas to complete the self-devised Sleep the Three Peaks challenge and amp;ndash; in which she overnighted on the summits of the highest mountains in Wales, England and Scotland and amp;ndash; raising both money and awareness for Centrepoint (the young people and amp;rsquo;s homeless charity). Phoebe is the author of 10 books including the bestselling Extreme Sleeps: Adventures of a Wild Camper, Wilderness Weekends: Wild Adventures in Britain and amp;#39;s Rugged Corners and the first guidebook to Britain and amp;rsquo;s free-to-stay mountain shelters, Book of the Bothy. Phoebe has proudly been an Ordnance Survey #GetOutside Champion since 2016 in recognition of her work encouraging people to enjoy the great outdoors. She is ambassador for the annual Big Canopy Campout (which helps raise funds for the World Land Trust), as well as Wild Night Out, the UK and amp;rsquo;s national night of adventure. She is also President of the Long Distance Walkers Association. Phoebe and amp;rsquo;s ongoing mission is to prove that Britain offers adventure to rival anything you and amp;rsquo;ll find overseas and that you don and amp;rsquo;t need to be a beard-sporting, rufty-tufty, I and amp;rsquo;ll-eat-a-dead-sheep-carcass Bear Grylls-type to have an adventure!
