Summary

The author writes colorfully about arriving in a strange place unprepared, with nowhere to go back to. It́s part travel adventure, often hilarious, and ultimately an affirmation for others considering making such a move themselves. "The book is a great combination of lyrical, beautiful prose with the writer's personality threaded throughout.... The reader is jarred by the dreamlike, erotic quality and fanciful descriptions of Antonio's Stick, for example. I think the book is witty and lyrical and accomplishes a good mix of social commentary and beautiful descriptions of Portugal and its people." - Sara Thwaite, Editor, Boys in the Trees, a Memoir (Carly Simon), Julie Taboulie's Lebanese Kitchen, (Julie Ann Sageer)
