life in Italy blog posts and stories

Daily life in Italy today is a bit different, although traditions and culture are still strong. Family and home life are a great example of it.
If you want to learn more about Italy’s way of life, here are my dedicated posts. Most of them regard life in Rome, as I live there, but I also like to explore the culture and customs of other regions and cities.
If you want to go even deeper into what life in Italy is like, you should get the issues of the Gourmet Mag, they are seasonal books about food, culture, and life in Italy, each one dedicated to a region or a specific city.
