Jones, Philip Gwynne

Philip and Caroline Jones, a middle-aged couple living in Edinburgh, found themselves facing redundancy and an uncertain future. Until they received some advice from a complete stranger in a pub. Their response was to sell everything in order to move to Venice, in search of a better, simpler life. They were wrong about the ‘simpler’ bit. ‘To Venice With Love’ recounts how they arrived in Venice with ten pieces of luggage, no job, no friends and no long-term place to stay.
