Ciao a tutti,
Italy used to be a country of emigration - thousands upon thousands left in search of better fortunes elsewhere, creating a vast network of Italian communities across the world. We find the stories of the children coming back in an attempt to discover their roots heart-warming and fascinating. They teach us a lot about history and what it means to be Italian in and outside of Italy today. The featured article of this week, about one person's efforts to find the grandparents' villages in Abruzzo, is a great example. We hope you enjoy it and will be compelled to send us your own stories.
Italian cars - irresistible. And for many car lovers a trip to Modena and the surrounding area is a must. The birthplace of such legendary names as Maserati, Ferrari, Bugatti it is both a perfect trip for a car aficionado and offers plenty for the non car-crazed members of the group to do. Get the insight scoop in this article.
We close this week with a great story on the hidden valleys of the Dolomites. Myra Robynson shares with us her special itinerary across this lesser known area of Italy.
Arrivederci,
ITALY team
