I enjoyed the book very much. Since I have lived in the Caribbean as well, although not aboard a sailboat, it was fun to read about life in the Caribbean from that perspective. I think they missed some of the great islands by staying too long in the Bahamas and Dominican Republic. But it was fun to read about their experiences anyway!

Enjoyed this book very much. it is the true story of a young couple who decided to leave the rat race and find new meaning in life by living in France and traveling with their young daughter. It is also a life guidebook meant to help readers find and peruse their own life dreams.

.Although I normally do not enjoy reading mystery novels, I do enjoy reading about the adventures of expats in France. Nancy Fairbanks writes about a couple from El Paso, Texas, a chemistry professor man and food critic wife. They visit Leon and Avignon, France and try to avoid being killed. It was a fun read!
