I adore Italy. For sheer style, class, architecture, art and food; it is easily one of the most glorious destinations on earth. However, don't we also want a little taste of La Dolce Vita at home? On those rainy days, when all we want is a taste of lo stivale, we have some fantastic suggestions. From Italian tailoring in the UK, to cheap
trips, tastes of Italy at home and ways to get to Venice that even Sophia Loren would be tempted by. Go forth my italophiles. |
