Carolyn grew up on a farm in a small village in the Peak District. When she was older, she started to see that there was a big world out there and she wanted an exciting life. She wanted more glamour and adventure. Life on the farm seemed so boring and she couldn’t wait to get away, she studied in London and traveled around the world. In the 1990s she was a stylist working on magazines in New York and other parts of America. She lived in Boston and had a hectic social life. It was a million miles from her village. It was exciting but it was also exhausting. After having two children she started to change. Her mind kept going back to those fields and hills in the English countryside. In her dreams she walked down all the roads and across the rivers that she knew. She thought of the smells and sounds of that peaceful life. Carolyn had everything in Boston, but it wasn’t home. When her Dad rang to say an old farmhouse in the village was up for sale she jumped at the chance to buy it. She persuaded her husband and kids to leave behind the American lifestyle. They made a difficult decision, it was more frightening than anything they had ever done. When they got there they saw that their decision was not unusual. Carolyn met old school friends who still lived and worked in the countryside, but she met more and more new faces. They were people who came from cities all over Britain. They had given up expensive houses and good jobs to move their families to a smaller house. They did the work they could find and they said they were happier. Carolyn and her family were happier also.
