Italia Part 1: The North

In these chaotic times, it is our families-both the ones we are born into by chance and the ones we seek out and cultivate by choice-that keep us grounded, inspired and hopeful for the future. And so, a trip to the homeland where family is flourishing in so many places and possibilities. A multi-faceted feast for the eyes, the stomach and the heart…

In the Veneto, there’s midnight rambles and market mornings in Treviso, a quiet hour with the ancestors in the Saletto cemetary, prosecco in Ninetta’s garden at the Favero farmhouse, a boisterous lunch with the Sandro, Mario, Stefania, Yuba and the boys, a visit with Adele’s beautiful chickens, dinner with the Davanzos (thanks for the magnificent artwork, Leo and Gaby!) and a lovely morning coffee with dear Zia Silvana. Thank you all for welcoming us with open arms!
