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!!
