I don’t think I’ve ever planned a holiday as aggressively as I’ve planned our annual Italy sojourn, beginning on Friday. Somehow, I remember being a young(er) globetrotter, ready to adapt and pivot to every hiccup, every failure that came my way. Maybe I’m so obsessed with things going smoothly that when the inevitable “oops” moments happen: triple-flustered. Nevertheless, a holiday filled with the best food, art, landscapes, and our Contrada awaits us. And we can’t wait to be with them!
