Key West by Jon Breakfield

Key West by Jon Breakfield

What would you do if you were on holiday and your better half said 'Let's not go back'? Would you stay? Would you stay if staying meant giving up everything back home in the UK to live on the backwater island of Key West, Florida? Come with me to this oddball, bacchanalian corner of the world where anything goes, the closest major city is Havana and where my wife and I lead an eye-popping, adventure-filled life until it is all ripped asunder by a catastrophic hurricane. KEY WEST: Tequila, a Pinch of Salt and a Quirky Slice of America is a lyrical portrait of a couple from the UK integrating themselves on a startlingly picturesque, joyously wacky island that is more Caribbean than it is American. More neurotic than it is sane. More corrupt than it is law-abiding. And more prone to hurricanes than it should be. This book is a celebration of life, love and adventure-an enchanting account of a couple who weren't afraid to jump off the hamster wheel and have a go at a dream.

Jon Breakfield was born in the United States of America. and was born and raised in Austria. He attended UCLA's famous Film School and graduated with honors. He and his wife still love Key West and split their time between Florida and Glasgow, Scotland, despite having survived a few hurricanes. Jon is a former television personality.

writer, author of three nonfiction books, and his debut crime thriller set in Glasgow, Scotland, will be released soon. If he hadn't been a writer, his only other option would have been to work as an international beer tester, allowing him to continue his travels while attempting to keep out of trouble in another language.
