I love the idea of slow travel, Claudia. My husband and I have practiced this during our February trips to San Miguel de Allende, Mexico. It's wonderful not to drive for a month. To learn about regional history and art. To cook on a little gas stove and linger on a terrace. I have yet to see Italy, but hope to get there one day. Thanks for sharing your wisdom. ✍️🦋

Thanks, Robin for words and your experience. (I have not been to San Miguel de Allende, but hear about it and see wonderful images). What a different and wonderful way to travel, just BE there…in a place, immerse and take it all in. Such a contrast to what I often observe in “known” destinations/places in Italy where you see Chinese tourists constantly pose with their smartphone and walking quickly from one scenic spot to the next.

Thanks for this! I'm still hoping to make a winter journey to Venice one day. Maybe my AT will meet me there? I'd love to have your list, se faz favor (practicing my European Portuguese!).
