Apart from that excursion at the age of 8, I had only been on one other trip away from my home village of Donington. This trip was prompted by my broken heart, and my decision to take a gap year, escape the pit of depression I was in, and find myself in a tropical jungle. I eagerly reviewed my finances, consulted with my mother, and reviewed my finances again. Eventually, I decided to scrap the tropical jungle idea and instead, opt for wild camping in the Scottish wilderness. This was mainly due to the fact that Scotland does not require a passport (much to Scottish annoyance) and wild camping is extremely cheap. For those unfamiliar with wild camping, it is simply a form of being homeless while maintaining some of the luxuries you would find while camping normally at a campsite. unfortunately, the gap year turned into a gap of two weeks and I promptly returned back to my pit of depression.

Caroline is 16 when she suddenly decides that her perfectly normal and loving home life is absolutely and completely intolerable. Suddenly moving out of home in 1988 is the beginning of a 13 year journey. As the journey continues, the passage of time has no significance. Always with the ability to find the humorous side, each address marks another chapter in Caroline's life and is the backdrop for the people she meets and the events that occur. Accommodation varies from unheated rooms and houses with wheel-less cars jacked-up outside to Regency flats and rural cottages. Transportation means vary from a single use bicycle, to Betsa and the faithful Dwanetta. Flatmates vary from a lovely Brummie and a singing nun to a dying dog, a ginger laminator, a 3 nippled geek and an accidental spell with a local drugs baron. Events vary from harbouring boarding schoolgirls, exercising racehorses, the occasional rave, trading in shampoo and marmite on toast to looking for stolen laundry, going undercover and self-defence with a hockey stick. Jobs vary from not having one to shop work, bartending and au pair through to getting a toe on the corporate ladder. There is infatuation, and love from various sources so there is also disappointment, and breakups by varying means and for various reasons. Education varies from a bit of formal study to a large dollop of the University of Life. The latter being the real reason Caroline left home in the first place - to grow up in her own way through her own experiences with no-one else to blame but herself and the interesting hand that life deals along the way. Caroline moves home 19 times, only to find that the 20th move takes her to the last place she ever expected to be. Back where she started. Things aren't always as they seem...
