Mayle, Peter - A Year in Provence

Surprisingly a first at reading this kind of book (so far as I can remember).

"Armchair travel"

Very amusing, beautifully descriptive without being cliched.
I was VERY impressed.

Have immediately started on the sequal 'Toujours Provence" which will make it's way up here shortly.

4/5 (should I bother with ratings?)

A Year in Provence

for those devoid of geography and too lazy to find out: Provence is in France

if you would like to do some armchair travelling in another kind of way go here: metroblogging lots of cities around the world, melbourne included.
