  • Fabulous & Valuable Info!

    I’m headed to Italy next month, and am also just fascinated with the country. This podcast covered so many points of confusion for me but also provided tips I didn’t know I needed. The backlog of episodes is so valuable. And the intel in general will make me a listener even after my trip.
