Merano is a lovely town amongst the Dolomites, in north of Italy. From the 5th to the 7th of november, inside the well restored ex-kurhaus, wine is the truly protagonist: XX wine festival with top producers of the world. I am there! after drinking enough (10 different varieties of reds and whites is definately enough for me!), parmigiano reggiano, great oils from puglia, and delicious torrone from campania, I walked on the riverside to rest my overstimulated senses. because of the middle season, I couldn't decide if it was more appropriate to choose the summer or the winter walk. but, in general, my spontaneous preference always goes to summer. today it was raining but warm and the colors of foliage were just fantastic...you should have been there to look at reds, yellows and few surviving greens, ... read more

Hello all! What a week it has been . I am sorry that I do not write on this as often as I had planned but it is a hike to get to a computer! What a week it has been! Sunday we had Tea with Mary.

Monday classes started and it has been a good time. We have Mary´s Pound class at 11am monday, wednesday and thursday. We are reading the Cantos and are memorizing Dante in Italian.
