13 Little Blue Envelopes by Mareen Johnson

17 year old Ginny gets a letter from her Aunt Peg telling her to go to the Chinese restaurant under her old apartment. The problem: Aunt Peg is dead. She gets a package full of letters from her wild, artistic aunt telling her to go to the locations which she has written down in the letters and that she'll cover all the costs. Aunt Peg writes saying that Ginny can only bring one backpack of things, no electronics, no communication with the U.S., and only open the next envelope when the task in the one before it is completed. Ginny then sets off on her trip that takes her all through Europe bringing adventure to her usually dull life. Her aunt's letters take her places she would've never gone and do things she would've never done.With only a very over packed backpack and her crazy aunt's letters, Ginny is led by the directions in the letters and her aunt's equally unique friends she made while in Europe.
