Two Nuts in Italy
Contents:
I cannot imagine what Sue Ellen did, going to Europe for most of the summer with only what she had in one backpack and staying in God knows where for the night. Since my husband and I had been to Europe before I read this I could sort of imagine where she was at. Love to hear more from her. Apr 21, Susan Dehn Matthews rated it liked it. Talk about stepping outside the comfort zone! This is a book that challenges the reader to consider self-imposed boundaries and to envision the great possibilities that exist when the mind and heart expand to encompass the previously unthinkable--at any age.

Love, love, loved it. Come on, it was !! When you read this book, you will find yourself wondering if you would have the courage to do the same thing, but loving every part of the journey. Three months of travel will require a lot of meals, and the ones she describes are so filled with the imagined tastes and culture that is almost like being a bystander. Her Italian experience has opened up a whole new world for her. Find out more about OverDrive accounts. I unearthed my passion and decided to let it live.

The author humorously addresses the age difference between herself and the average backpacker. To daughter Jenny, essentials mean a hair dryer and high heels, while the author is packing vitamins and inhalers. The opening chapters also deal with a change in plans as her son Jake joins the trip. Haning recounts the whirlwind of their first days in Italy—of trying to absorb Italian culture while overcoming jet lag and settling into her new situation and location complete with heat, discomfort and bugs.

As the journey continues, Haning undergoes a transformation. There is a growing connection between the author and her location as she becomes immersed in Italian culture and her communication and movement become more fluid. Her descriptions are richer, her writing more sensual as she shares descriptions and details of food, markets, the landscape and people.
