Wish you could be in Italy right now? Just like you, our thoughts turn to our best memories for inspiration and encouragement, especially during difficult times. So we return to Italy again and again, even if only in our minds. In a truly Italian spirit we invite you to do the next best thing to being there: read some captivating stories here, sip a little vino rosso, maybe cook some pasta and connect with like-minded family and friends.

Preserve, celebrate, share... these are the values our volunteer writers embrace when contributing to this brand new blog. Your feedback will be much appreciated since without you our memories of rural Italy will not come alive.
