“Painted Toes” is a travel memoir about my experience travelling with my beloved, John, in the fall of 2004. We travelled in many European countries (England, Wales, Netherlands, Spain, France, Italy, Greece) and I traveled on my own to Egypt.
Join me as I travel with John for my first experience of extended travel, cooperating through three months of unplanned and spontaneous travel, mastering the maze of public transit across Europe, and always, always seeking out the perfect Chai latté at Starbucks whenever possible.
I’ll tell all about the frightening airplane landing in Crete, the scary twisty roads in Majorca, climbing the Eiffel Tower in Paris, swimming in the Mediterranean in Nice, getting high in Amsterdam, having breakfast in Provence, riding a camel by the Sphinx in Egypt, watching the tourists at the Leaning Tower in Pisa, being robbed in Granada, drinking sangria in Barcelona, and more!
