As a young girl in Nova Scotia, her grandmother taught her to shoot animals for food and she rescued a wolf fallen through ice. Where do you go from there? Cross Arctic seas, become a professional African safari guide, deliver the guidebook to Costa Rica, lock yourself in an Antarctic research station, write your heart out.
