After my first week in Milan, I toured the south of Italy for two weeks, and then have spent the subsequent week writing about it and prepping photos! (I shot 2400.) What an amazing time. I met tremendously dear people and saw rich details. Indeed, as I’ve always heard, the south of Italy is very different from the north. The people are open, warm, unguarded and very willing to engage. It was a touching time.

I didn’t have much wifi while I was traveling, and could write but not post photos, so in order to “catch up” on the blog entries, you’ll have to scroll down and reread what you may have already read. I’ve been posting in chronological order based on my travel itinerary.
Don’t miss the synopsis of the food I ate: Eating the South.
The little town of Alberobello and its people was a pinnacle for me in many ways.
Palermo, Sicily, is a small city I’d gladly spend more time in.
And I just plain love these lemons and citrons I saw in Taormina.
I’ve now been in 12 of Italy’s 20 regions, plus trained through 4 more!
So when you’re ready to plan your trip to Italy, talk to me. I’ll tell you where to go, who to see, where and what to eat.
