Meet The Author: Alice Hughes

Come and meet author Alice Hughes.

In Every Other Hour, Alice takes us on her own journey around the country, travelling by bus, train and her own two feet. Sharing the ups and downs along the way, she visits some of Wales’ most beautiful, interesting and rewarding places – both well-loved and lesser-known – exploring The Valleys by train, admiring dark skies in Y Bannau Brycheiniog, strolling along the Wales Coastal Path and more. Packed with charm, local character and unforgettable experiences, as well as Alice’s favourite foodie highlights, her warm, funny book is the perfect companion for anyone drawn to the joys of slow travel and exploring car-free.

Alice Hughes grew up in North Wales and now lives in Cardiff. Her writing spans travel, place, arts and culture. She has twice been shortlisted for the Observer/Anthony Burgess Prize for Arts Journalism, winning the runner-up prize in 2024 for her review of the film Anatomy of a Fall. She enjoys sharing her enthusiasm for public transport and slow travel. Every Other Hour is her first book.

Alice will be chatting and signing copies.
