Welcome, Friends and family our goal with this blog is to help you keep tabs on what we've been up to after moving to Italy in 2007, by sharing some of our experiences with you. We have many of our old favorite places yet we always seem to stumble into something really cool just when we think we've seen everything. Our goal is to share these new experiences, along with an occasional wine or travel tip.
Sincerely,
Robert and Leslie Alexander

Cotta's First Truffe Hunt

Cotta', our little daschund, has a good nose and wanted to try out truffle hunting.
These are photos from her first hunt with Marco Varaldo and his truffle dog, Rocky.

She was only watching and helping this day, but Marco thinks she could learn with a few months of training.
