What Makes Italy Special?

What makes Italy so special? A very difficult question and after more than ten years of living in Italy it is now even harder to answer, so much is so extraordinarily good.

Undaunted by trying to do the impossible Andrew (my husband)and I have set ourselves the challenging task of discovering the best things about Italy.

Whether it is a special town or type of pasta we have put together various lists featuring just a few of the things we love most about Italy, click on the links to view the lists and let us know what we missed or what makes Italy special for you.

If you would like to know more about a place featured on any of our lists then please feel free to contact me, Maria.
