Quotes by Phoebe Smith  (?)

“there is something more to be experienced by staying longer in the outdoors than just proving to the world that you can. It's something on a much more personal level: appreciating things in a different light.”
Phoebe Smith, Extreme Sleeps: Adventures of a Wild Camper

“I may not be good at climbing, may lack the upper-body and leg strength required to make me a good cyclist or an ironman competitor, may have spent my schooldays getting an 'acceptable' for my level of fitness and a 'cause for concern' for my attitude towards exercise, but, despite all my athletic shortfalls, what I lack in agility I more than make up for in bloody-minded stubbornness and unfailing blind optimism.”
Phoebe Smith, Wild Nights: Camping Britain's Extremes

“But they did ask him what measuring tool he had used to compile it seeing as it was so accurate. "Me walking tool, me walking tool," he'd told them,' at this point she raised her leg up and gestured at her foot. '"Them's me bloody walking tool.”
