Lynx Vilden, the Woman Who Lives 200,000 Years in the Past

Lynx Vilden sheltering in a debris hut."Lynx Vilden, a 54-year-old British expat who, for most of her adult life, has lived wholly off the grid ... Lynx is not your typical back-to-the-lander.

"I suspect it is the people who are closest to the old ways who will survive the modern times."
