Author Biography

The updates for the second edition were completed by Howard Miller, her loving husband. Originally from Melbourne, after graduating from university, Kat moved to Japan. Working as an adventure tour guide in Japan helped Kat develop her skills to seek out the local hotspots and also develop a love for hiking. ‘ A wise man climbs Mt Fuji, a fool climbs it twice’ is a popular Japanese saying, so Kat climbed it 7 times. From Japan to Canada to London, she quit her office job in 2013 to walk the Camino de Santiago and never looked back. Sadly Kat's life was cut short in early 2020. She is fondly remembered for her meticulous work, inspiration and energy.
