In 1992, one woman packed up her life, headed to America and bought herself a little campervan.

She hit the open road travelling 160,000 miles across 48 states, discovering Bluegrass and Cajun music, attending festivals, honky-tonks and rodeos, dancing and romancing, camping in rather strange places, and even getting her kicks on Route 66.

What started out as an exploration of America, its music, its people, scenery and geography, quickly became a journey of self-discovery. This is her story.
