What an exciting way to grow and become independent, though there must have been extreme loneliness at times.

It will be interesting to see what she finds out in the vast world during her travels.

How fortunate to have supportive parents and the opportunity to travel!! Treat yourself when you can after you had to go through hardships!

Ah, those young dreams, the need to "get hell out of Dodge."

And hopefully, to discover somewhere Camelot. :)

You are a very brave lady

What a brave and wonderful thing to do especially in the 70"s.  Great story and can't wait to read more.

She was a gutsy lady and might have found herself in life changing difficult situations with the male predators that are 'out there.' Great writing lover.

The times have changed and it seems everyone is out to make a BIG buck no matter where it's at! I never thought my divorce was a failure, it was liberating! But, back then I can see how she felt that way! This is an engaging story! I am always ready for more when I get to the end, too! sam

Travelling and seeing the world - that's worth getting divorced for!

how fortunate she was to have enough to travel, to find herself, how different a story if she was left with wondering where the next meal would come from.   Maybe another story.
