Italy is made up of small businesses. In fact, 95% of all companies in Italy are considered “micro companies,” less than 10 employees. These small businesses are run by hardworking Italian men and women committed to artisanal trades and family traditions. I always watch and observe in admiration of these people. I think they give much of Italy its unique heritage and charm.

How Italy in autumn feels. #tuscany #autumninita

How Italy in autumn feels.

#tuscany #autumninitaly #brunello #oldworld

Savoring autumn and all the beauty it holds. There

Savoring autumn and all the beauty it holds. There can be a push for us to get on with what’s next. To hurry into the next season. But I don’t want to miss a moment of what today has to offer. To breathe in the colors of autumn and watch the leaves fall. To bask in the warm golden light of shortening days. To embrace the changing and transformation of fall into winter. I hope you too can take a pause today and this weekend ahead from the urgency of the holidays to come and fully live in all that today has to offer to you!
