you're going to love this! Share with us our knowledge and experience of Italian culture : people, customs, language, food and places to visit in Italy. Let us tell you all about the culture of Italy - and at the same time we will be your personal Italian travel guide.

We love Italy and Italian culture so much that we were married there, honeymooned and holidayed there, bought a house there, and are now living in this amazing country for a large part of the year.   In doing all that we've absorbed huge amounts of personal knowledge about the culture of Italy - not just academic knowledge but a real, huge, genuine love of and passion for the place, the people and all the Italian culture we can soak up. The magic of Italy ...

... has added such richness to our lives that we want to share its wonders with you - the romance, the excitement, the occasional madness of it.   Whatever you want to know about the country and its culture, we will help you find it - if it's not here, use our contact page to get in touch with us, and we'll find an answer for you.  Or use this free search box to have a look for answers within this site.

Need to know something about Italian cities? 

Is Rome accessible for wheelchairs?  Is there anything to do for kids in Rome?  When's the best time to visit?  How do you keep cool in the heat of an Italian city in the summer?  How would you like some insider knowledge?   Not just run of the mill sights where tourists go, but less well known places that only Italians know, friendly Trattorias where you can enjoy culture and Italian food,  wonderful hotels to use that won't break the bank - or perhaps a luxury hotel which will break the bank - and will be worth every penny for your trip of a lifetime.  How would your kids like to be a Roman gladiator for a day? For that matter, how would you like it?  We'll look at out of the ordinary things to do and places to visit in Italy that will keep your whole family entranced and entertained and make you want to go back for more, just as it made us. And we'll look at Italian culture and the differences between cities.  Is there one that's better for families? Would older family members be happier in Venice or in Rome?  What about other places to visit in Italy?  Where's good to go in the countryside?  What's the coast like?

The beautiful coast of Le Marche.

And what about pets?  Can they travel to Italy?  Do they have to go into quarantine?  Are there pet friendly hotels in Rome or other Italian cities?  Are there any dog friendly beaches?  Will your pet be happy living in Italy's heat, even if it's only for a holiday?  Let us be your Italian travel guide and steer you through the answers to those questions, and more. "I speak Spanish to God, Italian to women, French to men, and German to my horse" (Charles V).

Living in Italy, or just visiting, and want to learn the most romantic language in the world?  Not sure how to go about learning from a distance?  We'll share how we developed our Italian language skills using methods both conventional and not - and giving due credit to our lovely friend Claudio and his family who have taught us so much and whose favourite phrase is "è buon sistema" - or - "non è buon sistema" - depending ... Want to know more about Italian weddings?

Are you planning a wedding in Italy, or perhaps an Italian themed wedding, and want to know about Italy's wedding history and traditions? Look no further!

No, not a film set!- our real live wedding in Rome. We share information about our day - where it was, what it was like, how to go about organising it from a distance; about different places and ways of getting married in Italy, about what to expect and how to get through the paperwork; about how Italian culture will shape your day. And most importantly of all, we make sure you share our tips for how best to enjoy your day in the typical, traditional, Italian laid back way. As Italians would always say - "nessun problema"!

So - pour yourself a glass of cold white Italian wine - or a cup of hot black espresso - settle down, relax, and come into our Italian world. Enjoy Italian culture, enjoy the magic of Italy - and enjoy helping us develop the site by making sure you tell us what else you want to know.
