Award-winning travel writer Kirsty Fergusson grew up in the West Country, but did not venture across the Tamar until her fifth decade, when the opportunity arose to move to a remote cottage near Land's End in the far west of Cornwall. Having lived in Greece, Spain and France for many years, Fergusson's knowledge of the region was unclouded by TV images or the partisan adoration, nostalgia or prejudice that remembered childhood holidays seem to inspire. So with fresh eyes, an old bicycle and an even older pair of legs, she set out to explore and write about her adopted county with the same open-minded curiosity and Slow Travel ethic that had taken her plant-hunting in Mongolia and pottering around the Latin quarter of Paris. A keen promoter of the Slow Food movement, Fergusson has twice been appointed to judge in the Food and Farming section of the Royal Cornwall Show.
