When Jenny Scolding Steele was just 21 back in the 1960s, she walked out of her secretarial job and bought a one way ticket to Israel. What followed was a globetrotting odyssey, with little more than a backpack and her wits to rely on. Jenny travelled through India, sleeping anywhere from a temple to a brothel. She hitch-hiked through Iran, Sudan and the Sahara; witnessed riots in Nigeria and the famine in Ethiopia. Now Jenny now lives in Cadgwith with her husband Bill, and has recorded her remarkable story in a new book 'Vagabond Girl'. She has been discussing wanderlust with Â鶹Éç Radio Cornwall's Julie Skentelbery.
