Capri, Italy

At the beginning of September, we revisited one of our favorite places: Capri. We decided to revisit some of our favorites before we moved back to the US, and Capri was at the top of the list. We had visited the previous summer, but only as a day trip from Positano. You can read about […]

Venice, Italy

At the end of August, Patrick and I visited Venice. We had visited many places in Italy, but Venice was still on our bucket list. It worked out great because our good friends were getting married in Salzburg at the end of August, and the train ride from Venice to Salzburg is beautiful. We also […]

Barolo Wine Region, Italy

Patrick and I met Pier when he led our tasting at Gary Farrell Vineyards & Winery a few months before we moved to Munich. He moved back to Italy and started his wine community Oneonthehill in Alba.
