Despite Helen's disabilities and the challenges they pose, she's determined to explore the wider world around her as best she can. As part of her ongoing engagement with her natural environment, she regularly spends winters in New England with Anne Sullivan. Coming from Alabama, Helen isn't used to cold, snowy winters, so it's a whole new experience for her.
Although Helen is keener than ever to explore the world around her, ironically, it's the very remoteness and isolation of the New England village that appeals to her so strongly. It's as if having ventured out into the world, she now retreats from it, but with the crucial difference that it's because she's chosen to. Helen wants to experience as much as she possibly can, and the chilly remoteness of a New England village in wintertime adds another dimension to her ever-growing list of life-changing experiences. Helen really looks forward to her trips to New England; they invigorate her, making her feel more free than she's ever felt before.
