Discovering the beauty of Venice time and time again…
Welcome to Episode #150:
This week I am moved to share a story about my Italy and how it lives with me. I am slightly challenged by social media yet I guess fall somewhere in the middle, not one way or the other…. I was thinking about pop culture, ‘la dolce vita’ Italy and how my travel experiences have been quite different to that. So I wrote an article about this on substack At my Table and then realised later perhaps it is just my version of Italy, neither here nor there but a place forever in the heart of everything I do.

Staying in Florence with our children was a lovely family moment…

Substack Article - At my Table
Podcast Stories of Art on Alberto Giacometti I mentioned in the podcast!
The moments you get to keep…
The colours of Rome seem stay with me always, the eternal beauty is alive…
This is the general mood at my table! Just a collision of things that I love!
Writing about Italy has been a great joy, no matter the physical efforts, coming all the way from Australia it makes for many grand moments that follow me and become podcasts, writing projects, art on my walls. Italy is endless.
