About My Bella Vita

     Hmmm …

 

     When DID My Bella Vita really start?

 

     Did it start with my first blog post in June ‘06?

 

     Probably not.

 

     Did it start when I worked in Paris, met a charmingly

     attentive southern Italian, fell in love and 

     moved across the globe to the Bel Paese?

 

     I’m not sure.

 

     Maybe it started when I took that first intercontinental voyage back at the turn of the millennium and decided I wanted to write about it.

 

Yea …, maybe it was then.

 

But more likely My Bella Vita started years before, when I would run home from school to join my parents as they diligently worked - typing articles, interviewing leads, and literally cutting and pasting their weekly newspaper to meet their Friday afternoon deadline.

 

“It’s in your veins,” they told me.

 

And apparently they were right.

 

Over the last two years My Bella Vita has grown from a update-it-when-you-can online journal for stateside friends to an interactive blog where readers find the latest travel tips, links to free vacation giveaways, Italian tidbits, random recipes and a hodgepodge of Calabrese and Italian news.

 

My husband and I remodeled his childhood home and opened a bed and breakfast - right here in Catanzaro. So we talk about that sometimes, too. 

 

And oh yea. I still do that regular update for friends and family. If you are interested in receiving my (every-other-monthly) newsletter, click here and let me know. Your email address is safe with me.
