Details

Jess Smith shares a few old gems from past times when she lived on the road in her beloved Bedford Bus with her parents and seven sisters. Campfire gatherings of the Travelling folk are fast declining so it is with immense pleasure that she invites you to join her.

Jess Smith is a Scottish writer and storyteller. Her work focuses on the experiences of Scottish travellers. She has published six books, including an autobiographical trilogy recalling her own childhood experiences, and a booklet on Traveller Dialects (with co-author Robert Dawson). In 2014 she led a campaign to save the Tinkers' Heart, a Scottish travellers' monument in Argyll, Scotland.
