Time travel back to the early ‘60s as Barbara, a college graduate and Fulbright recipient from Delaware, lives in Aix-en-Provence.

A series of letters and postcards show a young woman experiencing the joie de vivre of France for the first time, along with its art, monuments, history, countryside, and food. Yet, her day-to-day life was full of making new American and French friends; dealing with money problems; and planning the next steps in her career.

Aix-en-Provence provided her a launching pad for adventures in Cannes, Spain, Morocco, Monaco and the Cote d'Azur, Italy, Switzerland, and the United Kingdom.

This book is for anyone who loves France and wants to discover the life of a wonderful young woman, who just happened to be my mother.
