At any age, you can miss your home and your old reassuring cat. Maya accompanies her designer mother on a professional trip to Paris but worries: will Mitaine hold up? Will her father working on a cruise ship leave St-John’s port before she’s back? Whether walking down your own German Street in New Brunswick or up Butte Montmartre in Paris for the first time, love is the best travel insurance.
