The Travel Notes of a Not so Young Woman Exploring Europe and the Oceans Alone

Beschreibung

In this book, the author shares her experience and observations while traveling alone in England and Europe. Having the experience of living in three countries-the former USSR, Israel, and the United States-the author is more apt to see differences in the new places that she encounters. It appears that food is the most memorable topic. The author has made a few trips to England, France, and Holland. She had been to Switzerland and Belgium as well. Also, she traveled around Europe by Transatlantic and river cruises. After moving to Florida, she took two Caribbean cruises. Her travels gave her great pleasure, and they were uplifting. Upon her return, it was easier for her to take everyday obligations, especially when planning and dreaming about the next trip.
