BI comments: Stunning view of Torre del Mangia in Siena. How the name was derived from its first guardian nicknamed Mangiaguadagni. You can read more about it here.

BI comments: What a mesmerizing view. I am seriously considering a visit to the region of Piedmont and the area of Langhe this summer. Here’s more about Langhe.

BI comments: The Grand Canal in Venice. Quieter and more serene than in peak summer months. However, with the Venice Carnival around the corner, the city will be buzzing again.

BI comments: A spectacular view of an early morning in Bologna. Another place that’s on my bucket list for this year and likely to be before summer. Can’t wait to visit this amazing city. Here are more photos from Bologna.

BI comments: Shimmering cobblestone streets of Rome. When in Rome, get lost and discover the hidden gems in the city.

BI comments: Translated from the original text in Italian “…this was the concert that was held in conjunction with the opening of the exhibition “Girl with the Pearl Earring”. More about the exhibition here.

BI comments: Staring outside the window and this was a view. I had to ask Alessio where this was taken as it’s such lovely view. Yes, I’m super jealous.

BI comments: A brilliant shot of Isola Tiberina. A few weeks ago, the island, which is home to a hospital, had to deal with the rising water levels due to the incessant rain. Thankfully, the water is no longer at alarming levels.

BI comments: Awesome shot taken in the region of Le Marche. Now when there are puddles, I’ll be looking at them from a different point of view.

BI comments: Bari, in the region of Puglia, is not often on the radar for visitors. It’s charming and worth a visit. This shot is of Piazza Cesare Battisti Ateneo.

BI comments: This is winter in Sardinia. Clear blue water at Villasimius located at the southern end of the island. For those experiencing snowstorms, I don’t blame you if you are packing your bags right now to head there for warmer weather.

BI comments: A spectacular night view of Florence. Breathtaking!

BI comments: If you know me, I have a weakness for vintage Fiat 500. This one is perfectly parked in front of the store.

BI comments: Ahh Tuscany, with views like these, it’s hard not to be enchanted by your beauty.

BI comments: Ilaria has been sharing some spectacular photos from Cinque Terre. This photo is of Riomaggiore. Love the colors!

BI comments: Talking about colors, love this shot taken in Capri, one of our favorite places. Here are insider tips on things to do in Capri.

BI comments: Speechless. This photo, again from Sardinia, was taken at Spiaggia del Poetto in Cagliari.

BI comments: Teatro Massimo in Palermo, an opera house dedicated to King Vittorio Emanuele. Palermo is unique city that has Byzantine, Arabic and Norman past.

BI comments: One billion rising at Piazza Diomede in Vasto, Abruzzo – saying NO to violence against women and girls.

BI comments: Thank to Valeria Palombo, I found this photo. How appropriate for Verona renowned for Romeo and Juliet though there is much more to the city.

BI comments: While Naples may scare visitors with its notoriety, it’s a fascinating city which deserves a visit. Another one of my favorite places in Naples is the Cloister of the Clarisse.

BI comments: When in Rome, you have to try the fried appetizers. In this photo, there is a fried artichoke (carciofi alla giudia) and zucchini flowers (fiori di zucca).

BI comments: Going back to Langhe, renowned wine area. You can’t blame me for eagerly waiting for summer to visit this stunning area.

BI comments: Todi, a hill town in Umbria, is filled with some lovely gems. If you plan to stop here, get in touch with Elisa a.k.a TodiGuide and she will be delighted to show you some of amazing gems. She showed me around when we visited Todi and I was in awe!

BI comments: This shot was taken in the town of Scanno in the region of Abruzzo. For whatever reason, rooftop views are hypnotizing!

BI comments: Loved the caption of this photo “Il tempo passa ma la vespa è per sempre” translated to “Time passes but the vespa is forever”.
