      Daisy Lord was born in 1915. He lived on a farm in the north of England. It wasn’t a bad life, but Daisy wanted to see the world. One summer day she got up early, put her violin and some clothes into a small bag and said goodbye to his family. She didn’t take any money with her because she didn’t have any.

      It was the year 1933 and the world was very different from what it is today. People read about different countries in books, newspapers or magazines and they sometimes saw films about them at the cinema. But they didn’t find information about them on the internet because there weren’t any computers. And of course, most people didn’t travel a lot.

      How did Daisy travel? She walked and whens he came to a village or town, she played his violin. People gave her money and she bought food. In autumn, Daisy arrived in the south of England and he bought a boat ticket for France.  At first,s he didn’t speak French, buts he soon learned a few words. From the north of France, she took a train to the north of Italy. She worked on farms to get money there. Finally, she arrived in Rome. She didn’t send a text message to her mother because there weren’t any mobile phones! She wrote her a long letter about her adventures.
