Travel gives you insight not only of the culture in which you’re traveling but of your own culture as well. The more I travel the more I realize that the motivations of family, work and play are the cornerstones of every society.
My month-long traverse of Italy has sadly ended. Nevertheless, it’s really nice when the immigration officer says “Welcome Home”.
If you enjoyed my Facebook posts and photos over the last weeks please please return here to my blog. Over the coming weeks I’ll be posting many of the images in my posts and a bunch you haven’t seen.
This is a sample of what I'll be posting. It's the view from Enrico and Alda’s house in Greve In Chianti on a morning where the evening storm was breaking.
