  • Today we're taking you on a journey to the Italian countryside, to show you how daily life is different from the hustle and bustle of big cities like Rome or Milan. See the beauty of vast Italian landscapes, the welcoming people and sense of community, and the slower pace of life. We'll also give you a glimpse of the local culture, food, and what a typical day is like when you live outside of a touristy area. In this video, we visit Alessio's family, check out some local restaurants, visit the nearby lake and show you the beauty of this small village. If you're dreaming of a simpler life, join us on this virtual trip to small town Italy.

    This was so beautiful. It made me emotional to see two young people in love and experiencing life to the fullest. I must say that Jessi is a beautiful woman in that she is feminine and obviously loves her man and that Alessio adores her.
    As a divorced old guy (59 years old) you give me hope for the future. Molto bene!

    This place reminds me of a small town in Northern Greece where I used to stay with my first boyfriend of 10 years and his mother taught me everything about cooking which stays with me today. The small town I used to stay in was so pretty and as natural and untouched as you could get. The most beautiful place and the best food I have ever eaten in my life was very Greek/Sicilian in everything and never a tourist in sight only the backpacker types that travelled through and that’s the way the residents wanted it. Still very sophisticated but so natural and down to earth and the nicest people ever.

    the best pizza in my life was from a tiny seaside town in Calabria like Diamante or Cirella - I it was from a hole in the wall (literally), wood fired, and I believe it only had ham and artichoke on it - but it lives in my memory forever. We were sleeping up in the hills in our kombivan and came down to the village for dinner. Other days we'd enjoy coppa con panna gelati and cream in a village square for passeggiata around sunset when the villagers all dress up to promenade - the young to eye each other and play up, and the old folk to gossip - bel paese - the Italians know how to live.

    I wish people would stop exploiting the ridiculous dolce vita myth of italy and making it out to be a Shangri la for arm chair travelers who never come here. Italy is not Disneyland. Doing this is similar to how Italians are stereotyped in American movies. Italy is hard just like any other place, often harder to live in. Strolling through fields in a white dress gets old, then you have to work at some point and one sees its tough.😢

Instead we stayed in towns like Padova, Torino, La Spezia, Bologna, Ravenna, Parma, Cortina, Mantova, Spello, Perugia, Sperlonga, Trapani, Selinunte, Taormina, etc... Italians are great people.

    in my case I ate probably my best and worst pizza in non-center Naples. I can confirm that eating around in small places sometimes you have really surprising results: one of my best dinners I had, was in a very small trattoria 5Km away from Orvieto. completely managed by a single woman in her 40s-50s. It was really, really good... went there almost by chance.
