Description:

In October 2000, Lucy Costigan flew from Dublin, Ireland, to Silicon Valley, California, to complete a 10-day contract. But destiny had other plans in store. On her first day in the Valley Lucy formed an immediate connection with one of her co-workers, Bob. Thus began a three-year adventure living in Santa Clara and exploring every corner of California: snow-capped mountains en route to Lake Tahoe; lush autumn vineyards in Napa and Sonoma; magical redwoods in Santa Cruz and giant sequoias in Yosemite; the splendour of the Pacific ocean in summertime; the barren wilderness of the Mojave Desert in winter. Travels in California will delight all who have ever visited this golden state, as well as those who dream of exploring the incredible beauty and diversity of her landscape in the Bay Area, and in Northern, Central, and Southern California.
