That would have been a pity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe young Kiwi sets off with John, a fellow student, on a journey that changes the course of both their lives. They survive Czechoslovakia, fall in love, and marry. Over the next five decades, Europe keeps calling them back.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eFrom Place to Place, from Time to Time\u003c\/em\u003e is a carefully curated collection of 34 absorbing travel tales that chronicle various adventures in 18 different countries during a particularly interesting period of modern European history.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe author writes with wry humour and a keen sense of the absurd about the highs and lows of travelling around Europe. Places come alive through encounters with memorable people, present-day and historical. Supportive strangers, engaging eccentrics and the odd rogue appear in perceptive stories inspired equally by culturally noteworthy and quirkily trivial experiences.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLiberally illustrated with evocative photos, this entertaining memoir brings a fresh Kiwi perspective to what we can learn about ourselves and our place in the world while exploring different cultures.
