Friends, A Villa & A Travel Bug - How to arrange a fabulous villa vacation for yourself and a few dozen of your closest friends (Paperback)

Have you ever seen a movie or a TV drama that takes place in a lush Italian villa (or French chateau, Spanish castle or English manor house) and found yourself daydreaming of what it might be like to experience that lifestyle? Janice Davis, author of the acclaimed guide to taking a one-on-one trip with a child, A Kid, A Grown Up & A Travel Bug, now turns her focus from traveling with children to traveling with a large group of friends or family - in style and economically Based on many years of experience renting luxurious and often historic European homes with groups of up to to twenty-seven friends, Davis provides readers with a template for successful villa adventures. Every aspect of organizing such a holiday is covered, from how to locate your villa to what factors you'll need to weigh when making your selection, to dealing with pricing and figuring out who gets which room. Also included are travel basics (such as how to find the best air fare, how to pack efficiently, and how to beat jet lag) and anecdotes from her own villa experiences. The Travel Bug series, while in some ways sharing the purpose of other travel books in that they convey the sense of wonder and excitement that travel brings, is not so much about the 'where' as about the 'why' and 'how.' The focus is on all there is to be personally gained by travel and how it can enrich you long after your return home, as well as giving practical advice for trips that are worry-free and affordable on nearly any budget. What really makes the Travel Bug series unique among other travel publications, however, is its focus on whom you're traveling with. The books explore how the travel experience can enhance your relationships with those who accompany you, and how those companions can enhance your own experience of the trip. Each book focuses on different arrangements of fellow travelers, from traveling with a child, to traveling with group, to the next book in the series which will spotlight traveling solo. Whichever mode you choose and whomever you choose to accompany you, travel is an exciting, soul-enriching, fun adventure that the Travel Bug series will help you organize and appreciate to the fullest.
