Daryl and I had a wonderful time "Hosting" our Group of amazing friends to Italy last week. So many wonderful memories were made, abundance of laughter, yes - even dancing (I have a video...but, promised not to share), we enjoyed delicious farm to table meals, w**e tastings, history abound with tours in Pisa, Lucca, Florence, Montecatini Terme and Montecatini Alto, Cinque Terre, San Gimignano, Siena and San Minato where we joined Brian and Milia for Truffle Hunting! Even with all the cities and villages we had free time to explore on our own. The beauty of Italy is breathtaking! I will post more pictures in the coming days so be sure to follow!

What a heartfelt reflection; on our recent group trip to Italy our Tour Director Maria told me we had time to make a quick stop..and asked how I would feel about stopping at the Florence American WWII Cemetery Memorial..there are no words that can express the overwhelming feelings we all experienced. There is a serene quietness, you just stop, breathe, offer many prayers and take it all in.

So very grateful.

Why I love “Hosting” group travel to amazing destinations!

1). It’s the people you travel with that makes the trip more than you can ever imagine!
2). The laughs, the memories, sharing the love of travel together!
3). Experiencing new destinations, sharing meals and finding out that your group loves to have fun, enjoy w**e and fine food…biggest surprise is some of them have dance moves that gets everyone on the dance floor. Oh, and they can carry a tune and make a bus ride exceptionally entertaining.
4). And this is only day 2…looking forward to the rest of our adventure!
5). Love seeing how everyone becomes fast friends!








Just a few teasers of a great group!
