My Year Abroad follows Tiller, a college student during his time abroad with a local entrepreneur and after he has returned when he is living with a woman named Val and her son, Victor.  I think people should give this book a try, the descriptions of food are amazing.  For me it was a little too long and then felt rushed to wrap up at the end.
