Helena Smith

I am a winner of the Vogue and Independent on Sunday writing competitions, and author of the Rough Guide to Walks in London & Southeast England, which describes the best walks in and near the capital.

Among the titles I have edited for Rough Guides are the first editions of Indonesia and Cape Town; the award-winning Rough Guide to Japan; and the first edition of a Rough Guide special - First Time Around the World. I edited London by the Book, a guide to literary London which launched the Get London Reading campaign.

Other recent clients include ecomonkey.blogspot.com, Intelligent Life, Newsweek Japan, Time Out magazine and Time Out online.
