Overview

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. 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.
