What It Means to Be an Italophile

The Best Italy Advice Doesn't Come From Google

Google can tell you train times, museum opening hours and the most popular restaurants in Florence. But it can't tell you whether you'd fall in love with Perugia more than Venice or why standing at a coffee bar might become one of your favourite memories. In this episode, I share why some of the best conversations I've had about Italy have happened away from search engines and why I've decided to create a new way for fellow Italophiles.

What Nobody Tells You About Italy

The Italy you'll remember most may not be the Italy you planned for. In this episode of The Italophilia Podcast, I talk about the things nobody really tells you before your first trip -the slower pace of life, the joy of wandering without a plan, the small moments that stay with you, and why Italy stays with you!

5 Places I'd Recommend For Your Next Trip To Italy

Beyond Rome, Florence, and Venice lies another Italy - one filled with elegant northern cities, Baroque southern gems, and hidden corners that stay with you long after you've left. In this episode of The Italophilia Podcast, I share 5 places I would personally recommend for your next trip to Italy: Perugia, Trieste, Lecce, Modica, and Torino. These aren't necessarily the most famous destinations, but they are places that surprised me, inspired me, and continue to occupy a special place in my memory. Whether you're planning a future trip or simply dreaming about Italy from afar, I hope this episode introduces you to a few places worth adding to your list!!
