'Daphne Robinson is making the most of her freedom after spending more than two
decades in medical and mental health institutions.

She has fallen in love with making a 900-kilometre round trip using public
transport from her hometown of Mount Gambier to Melbourne on the same day.

"The more I go over, the more I get addicted to it," Ms Robinson says.

"They say you get addicted to chocolate, smoking and alcohol and all that type
of thing, but I get addicted to going on V/Line because it has done wonders and
given me a new lease on life."'

Cheers,
