Author and long-distance runner Jen Benson decided to live in a tent for a year with her husband Sim and their children to escape the stress, pressures and mounting debt of their old lives, and this is her account of that year spent in the wilderness of Britain
This book tells the uplifting true story of a family who left their old life behind to spend a year living wild in a tent around Britain.
With a baby and a toddler, mounting debt, work demands and stress trampling over their desire to spend time together as a family in nature, Jen and Sim Benson move out of their rented accommodation, sell up their possessions and decide to live in a tent for a year as nomads around rural Britain.
This is the story of that year – the highs and the lows – the doubts, epiphanies and the weather.
Detailing one family's search for a life in the wild, away from the screens and stresses of modern life, this captivating memoir is a must read for nature lovers or anyone who has dreamed of a life outdoors.
It’s nature writ large with the joys and challenges of each season experienced under canvas, a story of ultimate freedom in the beautiful landscapes of Britain. This is a book that gently steals up on you and captures your heart.
