I'm Charlie Aitken and through Italian Soul, I'm on a journey exploring my maternal Italian heritage, searching for my ancestors, as well as collating stories, and of course recording my Nonna's delicious recipes. I'm sharing my ancestral journey with the world to hopefully encourage others to do the same in finding out who lead to them, and even to find some unknown relatives along the way.
