Have You Ever Dreamed Of A Vacation In Italy?

If you have dreams of a vacation in Italy, you've come the right place. As a die-hard Italophile, I can attest to the the enigmatic draw of a country steeped in the history of ancient civilizations, overflowing with great art and architecture, immersed in the language of love, and effervescing with a truly ebullient populace. If you only ever visit one country in Europe, Italy is by far your best choice.

Visit Italy And Fall In Love.

If I sound prejudiced, I am. I have been returning to Italy almost every other year for nearly 20 years. From my very first trip I fell in love with the country, the Italian language, Italian food and the Italian people. I felt strangely at home in a strange land. But I was not to be a stranger for long. I began immersing myself in everything Italian. Today, I can introduce you to Italy in a way that only someone with a passion for the country can.

Italy Leaves An Impression Like No Other.

I do hope you plan to travel to Italy soon and that here you are able to discover the many things that I found so enchanting about Italy all those many years ago. To this day I continue to discover new things to see and places to go in Italy, a country that will leave an impression on you like no other.

Travel Italy Once And Return Again and Again.

This site is a work in progress, so come back often. Just as I have been travelling to Italy for 20 years, it may take that long to make this site worthy of the country I have grown to love. I know that if you plan a vacation in Italy, you, too, will feel the need to return again and again.

On the first Sunday of the month in the Piedmont town of Sessame, one of Italy's most reknowned dishes -- risotto - is celebrated.

The Giro d'Italia, a bike race almost as celebrated as the Tour d'Fance, begins in early May and lasts throughout the month. This is a very popular event and people come from all over the world to watch it.

The last Sunday in May and the first Sunday in June is reserved for the Chianti Wine Festival in the Tuscan town of Montespertoli -- a very popular event.
