On the eve of
her 60th birthday, Nan Watkins decided to embark on the
around-the-globe trip she had always dreamed of--a trip she
would take alone. Having endured both the death of her
twenty-two-year-old son and the dissolution of a thirty-year
marriage, the author resolved to follow a solo path east
across Europe and Asia to renew connections with old friends
and explore foreign lands and cultures. As her
adventure-filled weeks and months unfolded, what began as a
trip of discovery transformed itself into a powerful journey
of the spirit.

This book is not going to try to persuade you to travel,
nor make grandiose assertions that stomping around the planet
with a coated-nylon pack will somehow fulfill whatever may be
missing from your life. Travel is an urge best cultivated from
within. The more eager you are to open
yourself up to life on the road, the more willing you are to
embrace the unknown rather than sign up for a pre-packaged
air-conditioned experience, the more likely you are to reap
real rewards. Believe it or not, nearly anyone can get around the world
in one piece (or in my case, two) . By the time you get
through the first section of this book, you should be savvy
enough to chart an itinerary for your trip and avoid nearly
all the snares that await you.

Gregory Edmont is
just another American sojourning in Paris until he adopts a
sophisticated Dalmation named JP. Suddenly his life is
charmed.
They leap to action after a call from the eccentric Dalmatian
breeder, Madame Clix: JP's services are needed to sire a
litter in the south of France. The adventure begins with a
near-arrest, as the French authorities question the legality
of a two-wheeling Dalmation. They escape, but the
roller-coaster of a journey includes a breakdown or two, a
coven of witches (who thankfully possess scooter-repairing
skills), meals at five-star restaurants. When they finally arrive at their destination, they discover
the power of love...just not quite as anyone expected.
Spotted in France examines the role of fate in our
lives and offers an intimate glimpse of six regions and a
dozen towns and villages in France.
