As an American expatriate who has lived in England for the past thirty years, David Kaye has had the opportunity to explore many locations around Europe, going to places he had always dreamed about as well as others he had never even heard of. With his English wife Diane, he crossed the Channel at every opportunity, embracing British travel traditions such as caravanning and package holidays as well as independent expeditions. Their destinations ranged from fortnights in the more usual spots in France, Spain, and Greece to farther afield places like Croatia, Bulgaria, and even Tunisia with assorted weekends in cities such as Paris and Amsterdam. From topless and even naturist beaches to ancient ruins to cultural highlights to accommodation nightmares, David and Diane explored and enjoyed and kept going back for more. For David Kaye, it was a chance to discover how many American preconceptions about Europe were accurate and how many were not. Wherever he went, he tried to observe with an open mind and a sense of humour. This book recalls his most memorable adventures around Europe, the people he met, the differences and similarities, and his impressions of it all. For any American who has ever dreamed of going to Europe, and even some who have been there, these light-hearted reminiscences will both enlighten and entertain.
