memories Last year i travelled to Bologna, where i studied at the Cultura Italiana language school for almost three months. These photos bring back so many good memories! I was there during the same time that you were and i actually went to that Charlie Chaplin exhibition, it was reall cool!
Lago Maggiore Hi Jamie, I found your blog via an internet search for good restaurants in Lake Maggiore. We too are great fans of the area and are keen to keep it a secret!! You write about a delicious dinner you add that was cooked by Adolfo, who is he and can we contact him? Does he run a restaurant, if so, where is it???
SO many questions!
Many thanks for your help. Sam
never forget your writing is so exquisite, I promise you will never forget, you will reread these journals in the days/months/years ahead and be greatful that you were able to capture the essence of this experience with such grace! I feel your experience and I am sure you will remember, too.
this entry is brrrrrilliant. it's funny that you slip into broken english at times, assuming that they aren't just typos. don't take this as criticism -- they give the work a surreal tone. your descriptions, too, are very detailed despite their brevity. time seems to fly by in these brief snapshots of intense clarity. write about your new place soon, yeah?
makin' friends & good times What an entry... could not be a better Father's Day present than to know you're livin' large! What fun. The people you're meeting - you characterizations... they're just wonderful... what a diverse, talented and interesting bunch!
Just watch that God of the Grape! hahaha
I love you...
incredible pictures! give up food & work for Fodor's Jamie... this is another wonderful entry... great photos - nice camera work! You should be able to hear my heart pounding at how excited I am for you - every word is filled with your enthusiasm and I can FEEL it... Thank you, sweetheart - for sharing your incredible experiences...
Whoa... what a mouthful... so much more than tasty morsels... Hey Jamie, what an awesome entry... I won't have to eat dinner... hahaha.
Sounds like you're having a wonderful time and enjoying every experience with all your senses... good for you!
Thanks for sharing this with us and I look forward to more... just like any good meal... the anticipation, the presentation and the after-glow were all here in your writing... Thanks sweetheart.
it's almost like being there... thank you, Jamie You're writing is wonderful and it does almost feel like I'm there with you... You're very observant and sensitive to things and it comes through your words with a richness that's deep in your soul. Thank you for sharing your sights, sounds, flavors and feelings - trust me, we feel the love and hope you know that we are 'there' with you!!!
so here you are a tourist in Milan! I hope you enjoy the architecture, definitly different than here.
By the way I tought it was you on the pic and not your cousin!
-adesso, sono a capriglio-
i have the great desire to travel, write, and cook...and hopefully one day i'll have the know how to combine my passions.
i'm inspired by little things, because those are the things i can count on to make me happy.
i'm a member of WWOOF (willing workers on organic farms) in italy and i'll be farming on 5-6 organic farms in northern italy between monteveglio, capriglio, bologna, firenze, parma, etc. i want to learn how to cultivate different foods from the ground up, and integrate a need for sustainability in nature and in my personal life.... full info
