- In 2009, on a trip to Ferruzzano, Calabria, my mother's hometown I attempted to film the building of a loggia on the beach.
Unfortunately, although I tried everyday I asked "Are you going to work on the loggia today" Almost everyday the answer was "Not today, tomorrow!"
Unfortunately my stay was over before I could complete my footage. It was a very special pleasure to speak with 2 locals (and friends) about what it was like to live at the time when the custom of living in the loggia's for the month of August was still going.
Orlando Sculli, a passionate historian, thank you for sharing your memories of the the1950's.
Ferdinando Sculli, thank you for sharing your memories of the 1970's with me.
"I Loggi di Ferruzzano"
Special thanks also to Giuseppe C. Pedulla, Stefania Sgambellone, Michael Pedulla to whom I owe thanks for the use of the photos that were shared on the I ♥ Ferruzzano Facebook page.
If you are reading this and have more pictures to share please do! And if you know of anyway we can lift the ban on building the loggia's on Ferruzzano Beach, you would be a hero among the 'Ferruzzanoti' of the world. Such a shame this tradition seems to have gone forever.
