Ciao a tutti,

Some fun with a promotional video from Basilicata this week. Basilicata is notoriously considered as one of Italy's lesser known regions - and their tourism board focused on exactly that trying to dispel the myth. It attempts - with some success - to prove that a visit to Basilica is equivalent to a trip across the world.

Untouched by mass tourism, Basilicata has a unique charm that is slowly being discovered by visitors who are keen to get away from other tourist packed destinations and enjoy the beauty and tranquility of real Italy. Do not miss the video!

April inspired us a simple "ricetta primaverile", a spring recipe, with the last good artichokes of the season, fava beans, which start appearing in the markets, and a touch of fresh mint. "Frittata di carciofi e fave alla menta", artichokes, fava beans and mint frittata is an ideal seaonal recipe which is also a great option for a nice spring pic-nic all'Italiana.

Finally, for those of you interested in purchasing a property in Italy our tip on the difference between Acconto and Caparra will help you avoiding misunderstandings and problems right before putting down a deposit.

Arrivederci a tutti,

ITALY team

Borgo Belvederi

Borgo Belvederi is a magnificent and secluded ancient hamlet, nestled on top of a green hill about 2 miles from the city of Camerino, in Le Marche.

Overlooking the valley, the eight homes of the Borgo offer five-star accommodation in a unique setting, not far from the sandy beaches of the Adriatic, the tall Sibillini mountains and some of the most famous cities of art of Central Italy.

Enjoy the large scenic pool, or wander around the Borgo and its surrounding chestnut forest. Discover the nearby picturesque villages, ancient retreats, ghost towns and medieval castles, or just relax by the small piazza sipping our own label wine.
