Amen.

I saw these two angels on their last day of school term, before the long summer holidays last year. Seeing them again today, made me realise how going back to Italy - as I am in just a few days from now - always makes me feel. Like a child.  

The best things in life aren’t things

About me

Australian by birth, Sicilian by heritage, I fell head over heels in love with Italy as a student in Perugia more than 20 years ago. Since then, I've been back and forth and back again so many times I can't tell you. And every time it gets harder to leave. For now, home is Melbourne, where I live with my young daughter Marabella and work as a freelance interior designer. But it doesn't end there. I started the blog because I need to see how my Italy story ends. Destination Umbria is about finding a way to turn my passion for Italy into something more. But it's for you too. For lovers and dreamers and people who know that your real home isn't always the place you were born.
