For those who hear the call of the wild - a lifetime of wonder and danger await. It is one of the last great callings of the outdoorsmen that keeps the passion for exploration alive in this day and age. Keith Foskett is no stranger to its sprawling song, having grown up against a backdrop of rolling hills in the English countryside. His passion for hiking and the outdoors was nurtured in this place, leading to a lifetime of exploration and discovery that his taken him across thousands of open miles across the planet. Beginning with three hikes of El Camino de Santiago in Spain, Keith's appetite for long-distance hiking evolved. Since then he has completed all 2640 miles of the Pacific Crest Trail in America as well as 2200 miles of the famous Appalachian Trail. His deep respect for the natural wonders of the world has left him in awe, and ever vigilant for the next great adventure. Perhaps it is a combination of his early years fostering a love and deep connection to the world around him and his later travels that spoke to the storyteller within. For Keith has found success and acclaim off the trail as well, sharing his stories and his knack for narrative in both books and outdoor publications. In recent years, two of his titles have been shortlisted for Outdoor Book of the Year and his blog was voted #1 of the year. Always hands-on in all that he does, Keith finds time to bare his wandering soul with other nature lovers on his blog. Nurturing a strange fascination with down sleeping bags and woollen underwear, Keith knows that for all the adventure that await there is no place like home - the rolling green hills of West Sussex, England.
