Bobby Bolton
At the age of twenty-five, Bobby quit his career in London to pursue a dream he’d nurtured since he was a teenager – to run his own business. With a passion for building, a degree from Loughborough University, and a few years’ experience with a property developer, he felt ready to take on the world and the challenges that lay ahead. Little did he know that before he was thirty, his heart would be broken, and he would be homeless and near bankrupt.
To turn his life around, Bobby set out on a crazy adventure, selling all his possessions to buy a truck and drive from his hometown of Wigan all the way to Australia.
