Travel Guide
Liked something you saw in From The Source? Knowing where to go on this trip was a result of almost 40 years of absorbing all the knowledge of Italy I possibly could on my travels in the country. The good news for you is that none of these places are exclusive and all would welcome you with open arms. See below for a roughly chronological itinerary and all the places we stopped.

Want to go to Italy with me instead?
Look, if the dumpster fire that is 2020 hadn’t happened I’d have taken a small group and personally guided them in Italy this fall. But COVID-19 had other plans. Some day we’ll all be able to travel again, so if you’d be interested in coming with me when that happens drop your email and I’ll let you know when circumstances permit.
