Pizzeria Brandi

Start with the markets to know what to eat in Napoli. There is a lot of wonderful street food here so leave room to sample. It can be chaotic, but fun!

I envision the Next Renaissance will be in the small towns and villages in Italy, where the people, descendents from ancient Etruscan and Lombard, are indigenous to this region and have lived close to the earth for over 2500, cultivating a simple but beautiful way of life we can all learn from. There is a shift away from big corporate travel toward slow/small travel where you can listen to Mother Earth, Father Sky and your own Heart and Soul. It is the way I like to travel....and live. Join me for a week in this authentic medieval village perched on a hill overlooking the fertile Telesina Valley with her Falanghina and Aglianico vineyards, the olive groves and the magical Mount Tiburno and Calore River. Enjoy! Buon Viaggio!!
