Ah. Amazing things happen when you RTFM,
default-directory's value is "~/"
Local in buffer *Apropos*; global value is nil
Documentation:
Name of default directory of current buffer. Should end with slash.
Each buffer has its own value of this variable. To change the
default directory, use function `cd'.
Yup. The cd function works fine.
