Italy, three ways: a slow summer in Ischia and Capri, a pizza pilgrimage in Naples, and two throwbacks โ an anniversary on the Amalfi Coast and la dolce vita in Venice.
My Italy guides
Slow Days in Ischia โ The 2026 trip opener: arriving on Ischia and surrendering completely to island time.
A Day in Capri, in Shades of Blue โ Blue water in every direction, cliffside wandering, and a pasta dish I did not see coming.
Mezzatorre Magic โ Our first Ischia stay: aperitivos by the piano, golden hour, and pasta by the sea.
Slow Days at San Montano โ Our second Ischia stay: morning swims, long lunches, golden sunsets โ the days I still miss.
A Naples Pizza Crawl (of One Perfect Mission) โ Back on the mainland: walking the streets of Naples in search of the perfect slice.
Our Anniversary on the Amalfi Coast (From the Archives) โ From the archives: celebrating four years with Jake on the Amalfi Coast, September 2022.
Venice, La Dolce Vita (From the Archives) โ From the archives: getting happily, cheesily lost in Venice, July 2017.
