<br/><br/> "Never in my life have I acted this way!  What can I be thinking?" when Joanna traveled to Yucatan in the winter of 1976, she had no idea that life as she knew it was about to change radically.  A fortuitous meeting with a handsome man struck a chord in her, and she found herself embarking on a whole new adventure.  Thirty years later, she shares her experiences and recounts the history of her adopted corner of the world. For Joanna's contemporaries, this book is a trip down memory lane.  For new residents in Merida and its environs, she give thoughtful insight and suggests measures that will help them to avoid a few of the pitfalls as they adapt to the (sometimes daunting) Yucatecan culture.  As well, twenty of Joanna's friends, a wonderful group of women, tell their tales of like in the land of the Mayab.  BOOK JACKET
