Produktbeschreibung

Can you imagine living in Italy for one full year? This was the dream. That was the promise. After a rollercoaster ride of three years to obtain Italian citizenship, Ilene and Gary achieved their goal. In 2019, they packed up leaving family and friends to live this dream in Italy.

This is their travel memoir and personal adventure, which has changed their lives forever. In Our Italian Journey, you will discover and share their desire for a genuine experience with an Italian family and how this dream came true. Enjoy their stories and witty insights about new Italian friendships, reconnecting with old friends, meeting up with subscribers to their blog, and the countless experiences through the various towns they stayed and explored.

In Our Italian Journey, Ilene and Gary provide you with an entertaining look at life in Italy. A journey with a bit of history, tradition, and culture that is written from their hearts. Experience and appreciate Italy's charm and appeal while joining in the laughter as they also divulge the trials and tribulations they encountered along the way. Through this journey, they eat and drink their year through Italy visiting 8 regions and 46 cities; include Sicilia andLicodia Eubea, their new Italian birthplace. They picked up their Italian birth and marriage certificates during the adventure in Sicily.

Their debut, writing this book together as their journey unfolded in 2019, was a step outside of their comfort zone and a new venture for them. Ilene and Gary invite you to take a glimpse of Italy through the eyes of locals and their pride as new Italian citizens. Our Italian Journey would make a great "Italy Read" prior to an upcoming visit to Italy or for someone who just enjoys the Italian culture and would like to experience it firsthand with this couple.

Autorenporträt

Ilene and Gary are award-winning bloggers and authors of two books.

Their very first memoir has been transformed recently into an audiobook! The best part is, that they've narrated it themselves, enhancing the connection between author and audience, and bringing their written words to life in a new way. Listening to their authentic voices recounting the stories and experiences that have shaped their lives has been an incredibly personal and emotional journey.

"When Your Heart Finds Its Home," (their second book) is a continuation of their first - but... it is also a stand-alone memoir. Finding their "perfect Italian town" became a reality and now they are living La Dolce Vita in Italy.

The first book, "Our Italian Journey," was written while living in Italy for one year in 2019. Writing as they traveled through various towns they stayed and explored, they share their trials and tribulations, as well as the laughter in this lighthearted book. They describe artful depictions of Italy's seducing charm, their experiences in daily life, Italy's cultural differences, and the well-known Italian zest for living. Live vicariously through them in their spiritual experiences throughout this beautiful country they can now call home.

It took them three years to become Italian citizens through the Jurs Sanguinis and Jurs Matrimonii application through the Los Angeles, California Consulate. They would describe this process as a rollercoaster ride and currently help others with their applications, questions, and travel advice. Obtaining Italian citizenship became personal for Gary in wanting to bring his name back home to Italy.

Currently, they are living in Lucca, Italy.
