Autorenporträt
As a child, Ava loved to travel by means of one of her favourite books, her world atlas. Her first voyage was to Paris during her third year of university, and then to numerous other destinations. She recently spent four remarkable years in Saudi Arabia as a teacher of English, taking photographs of and notes on her travels, and the idea for writing "Grammie" was formed. While there, she travelled not only within the Kingdom, but in nearby countries and in the United States during the summers. Currently, she divides her time between her island home in Maine, where her grandkids visit, and southwest France. A recent adventure was a trek along 200 kms of the Camino de Santiago in Spain, and later enjoying the beautiful chaos of Morocco's souqs, and walking barefoot in the sands of the Sahara, yet another childhood dream realized. Please join her and travel off the beaten path together.
