TE Talks! History, Travel, and All Things Italian Robert Allyn

So you've travelled to Italy fallen in love with it and come back again and again?  Where else should you go? On of the best kept hidden secrets is the lake district just a hop skip and a jump from the city of Milan. These lakes are some of the most beautiful in the world. The most famous one, of course, is Lago di Como and it is much more than just the place where George Clooney bought a villa. Rob has a wonderful conversation with local resident, guide and food connoisseur Carlotta. They go over what would be a perfect day to experience all the senses for an unforgettable day starting from taking a ride in a wonderful Venetian taxi boat crossing the lake and seeing beautiful villas and gardens and then finishing up the journey with a perfect Italian meal of local foods and wines. Have a listen and be transported to something precious and wonderful, a day on the Lago di Como! 

Please enjoy our TE Destinations video of one of the other lakes, Lago Maggiore https://bit.ly/3wktwpf

Have you ever been curious about what Easter traditions are like in Italy?  Easter in Italy sometimes can be considered more sacred an important than Christmas for the Catholic faith.  Listen in to Rob as he goes over many different traditions that were developed centuries ago when the country of Italy did not exist. It is fascinating to hear about how so many different areas and regions of present day Italy have their own very specific traditions and culinary delights. Be prepared to take a bite into a piece of Torta Rustica and make plans for a Pasquetta Picnic!

Join Rob and Marco as the have a fascinating chat about so much more than just the leaning tower. Did you know that it isn't a tower all by itself? It is a bell tower for the cathedral of Pisa and the whole complex of Church, Bell Tower, Covered Cemetery and Baptistery is truly unique not only in Tuscany but all of Italy. Marco does such a splendid job of enlightening anyone who listens that you can get so much more when you visit the area. Then he and Rob discuss how Lucca was the only tuscan town to never be conquered by Florence and that it is still a delightful hidden gem where you can interact with the Tuscan locals and it is also perfect base of operations for when you want to stay and truly explore Tuscany for a week or two. It is pretty close to everything!

Join Rob as he has a wonderful conversation with Sergio Dondoli winner of multiple awards for creating some of the most outstanding flavors ever created for Gelato. They talk about how he became so well known after multiple visits from Tony Blair and how he creates such beautiful mixes of flavors often using ingredients found in Tuscany like Rosemary and Lavender.  Sergio also recounts to Rob the history of the beautiful town of San Gimignano and its towers and why saffron is such an important ingredient in his world famous flavor: Crema di Santafina di San Gimignano. Most importantly, he gives the most thorough answer to why Gelato should never be considered ice cream and how one can easily tell what is the difference.
