![Jese Leos](https://novel.bccbooking.com/author/orson-scott-card.jpg)
Growing up in a working-class family in North London, I never imagined that my life would take me to the Canadian Arctic. But as a young woman, I found myself drawn to the North, its vast landscapes and its promise of adventure. In 2009, I left everything behind and moved to the Arctic, where I began a new chapter in my life.
From North London to the True North is a memoir that chronicles my journey from a troubled childhood to a life of purpose and fulfillment in the Arctic. It is a story of identity, belonging, and the transformative power of nature.

I was born in North London in 1984, the youngest of four children. My parents were both immigrants from Jamaica, and they worked hard to provide a better life for their family. But our home life was often chaotic and unstable. My father was an alcoholic, and he was often violent towards my mother. I grew up feeling like an outsider, both in my family and in the community. I was bullied at school for being different, and I often felt like I didn't belong.
As a teenager, I began to experiment with drugs and alcohol. I was trying to escape the pain of my childhood, but I was only making things worse. I dropped out of school and started hanging out with a bad crowd. I was arrested several times for petty crimes, and I spent time in jail.
In 2009, I hit rock bottom. I was addicted to drugs and alcohol, and I had lost all hope. I was ready to give up on life.
But then, something unexpected happened. I met a woman who told me about the Canadian Arctic. She told me about the beauty of the land, the kindness of the people, and the opportunity for a new beginning. I was intrigued. I had always been drawn to the North, and I knew that I needed a change. So, I decided to take a leap of faith and move to the Arctic.
It was the best decision I ever made.
I arrived in the Arctic in the fall of 2009. I was immediately struck by the beauty of the land. The mountains, the glaciers, the lakes, and the rivers were all so breathtaking. And the people were so welcoming and kind. I quickly felt at home in the Arctic.
I spent the next few years living in a small Inuit community. I learned about the Inuit culture and way of life. I learned how to hunt, fish, and trap. I also learned how to survive in the harsh Arctic environment.
The Arctic taught me a great deal about myself. I learned that I am stronger than I thought I was. I learned that I am capable of anything I set my mind to. And I learned that I am worthy of love and happiness.
In 2014, I decided to leave the Arctic and return to England. I wanted to share my story with others, and I hoped that my book would inspire other people to find their own true north.
From North London to the True North is a story of hope, redemption, and transformation. It is a story that will resonate with anyone who has ever felt lost or alone. It is a story that will inspire you to believe in yourself and to never give up on your dreams.
