Somewhere along the way of the 20+-yr marriage of Susan Pohlman, the author, & her spouse have lost what it takes to keep their marriage going in the busyness of their daily lives. They are at the point of divorce. Instead, the couple take a risk, pull up their 'roots,' pack their bags with their two children to Italy for a year. The couple find each other again; the simpleness of the Italian life in the small villages they visit, enjoying the art of the sights they visit, the coffee breaks, the special times together as a family, & watching their children adjust to school abroad. Pohlman writes of the families adventures throughout the year spent abroad. She often shares comical thoughts & thoughts to contemplate. A thoroughly enjoyable read. Makes a person want to travel to Italy. The book easily makes you feel you are there with the family.
