Castaway on a Hostile Shore

The present has rippled and the past intervened. It’s leaking through the walls of this cold northern room, and all those feelings are coming back with it.

This is from Chapter 4 of Vagabond Dreams. It’s about traveling alone, and that first time you set out on the road.
