A recent guest, Barbara put it this way:
“Your farmhouse apartment is spacious, clean and well-appointed: a lovely retreat after a day of touring.”
Barbara, delighted to host you and Brad in our Assisi countryside apartment. And thanks for joining us for dinner the night you arrived:
Brad and Barbara, welcome to our home!
…and I am glad you felt la passione:
“We knew from your website that you had alot of energy and a strong work ethic. We did not pick up on the passion you have for the unique hill towns of Orvieto, Perugia, Assisi, Spello and all of Umbria,“ Barbara wrote to me after our time together. Barbara, glad you and Brad joined us in, Perugia and Deruta, meeting Umberto and then Giuseppa – and experiencing their passione!
That Umberto passion for hand-whipping his cream
No better cappuccino in all of Perugia
Barb, get a photo of that pasta!
Mimi and Barbara ready to taste Giuseppa’s handmade pasta
Buon appetito!
No pasta like Giuseppa’s
And Barbara and Brad, no better time to be here than October 4th as Barbara noted:
“The Feast of St. Francis on October 4th was an experience in local tradition – one we felt honored to share with the Italian people……”
October 4th, Feast of St. Francis, Assisi
Barbara, Brad, thanks for staying with us and thanks for joining in the early October Umbria wonders – and may we connect again soon, here or there.
