You can use 'encfs'. It is really trivial.
You need to create a directory where you will put the encrypted files like
this:
encfs ~/.encdir ~/workdir

Read this for a lot more info:
http://movingtofreedom.org/2007/02/21/howto-encfs-encrypted-file-system-in-ubuntu-and-fedora-gnu-linux/

But, what I told you is basically what you need.
