Hainan Kvaala writes to encourage couples to spend time together exploring the sights, sounds, tastes, and activities of life. Adventuring together will help couples build bonds that will carry them through the hard times. In The Couple’s Adventure--Over 200 Ideas to See, Hear, Taste, and Try in Central Florida, Kvaala gives ideas on how to explore Central Florida. Unlike other guides to Central Florida, this book does not just spend time in Orlando. Kvaala makes sure to include destinations on the east and west coasts of Florida and north and south of Orlando. I spent a lot of my growing up years in the St. Petersburg area and go back every few years. Kvaala discussed some places I have never heard of but I can’t wait to return to the area and try the places mentioned.

The Couple’s Adventure is set up in an easy-to-use manner with each location described in enticing terms. At the end of each description, Hainan Kvaala gives contact information including the site’s web address, their Facebook page if they have one, and the physical address. There are four sections of the book, each jammed full of places to visit while in the area. Section 1 discusses places to see including the fauna and flora that make Florida special. Section 2 discusses places to go and listen to various types of music. Section 3 covers 69 places to try out the food and drinks. The last section, Section 4, gives places to go and be active: from bicycling to racing. I highly recommend this book for couples who have never been to Florida as well as to those who go there on a regular basis. Although this book is designed for couples, I also recommend this book for families as well.
