Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When her plush and comfy life suddenly and unexpectedly fell apart, Brooke and her dog Cloud set out to defy the odds. She put on a knapsack and started walking. If this is a man's world as they say, living on the streets is no place for a young woman. She was able to navigate her way through challenges and obstacles, getting odd jobs along the way, and hopping freight trains as a main mode of transport, until one day she awoke in the Red Wood forest, looked around the make shift camp built upon mounds of dirty kid trash and hidden back into the trees, and realized she had become... a hobo... and would ultimately come to know exactly what it means to survive.
