About

Sian started out at BBC Countryfile before working as the editor of Active Traveller. She now runs her own award-winning blog, The Girl Outdoors, as well as writing regularly for titles including The Independent, Countryfile and Coast Magazine.

Background

Sian has spent much of her adult life exploring the outdoors with hiking boots on her feet and a tent in her backpack. Time working in the Italian Alps and in Bolivia fuelled her passion for adventure travel, and she’s now passionate about the wild spaces that can be found closer to home, regularly covering camping, walking, wild swimming and mountain travel across the UK.

On the bucket list

To climb Cotopaxi in Ecuador, to explore more of Mexico’s coastline with a surfboard in tow, to cycle the Hebridean Way in Scotland and to return to the Himalayas for high-altitude hiking.
