If you like culinary or wine travel, you need to put the Chilean Winelands on your travel bucket list. Tamara just came back from a two-week trip to Chile including the Atacama Desert and the Winelands. Episode Highlights: The wine regions are south and west of Santiago It is easy to drive through these regions but it is still recommended to get a driver for days when you are doing wine tasting Two hours south of Santiago is the Colchagua Region that is known for its red wine including Malbec, Bordeaux blends, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Carmenere. One hour west of Santiago is the Casablanca Region, which is closer to the coast, and is more known for its white wines like Sauvignon Blanc and Chardonnay. She stayed at the Vibo Wine Lodge in Colchagua. This is a small boutique property on the Viu Manent Vineyards near Santa Cruz. It has individual lofts or tiny homes spread out throughout the vineyards. Another popular place to stay in this region is Clos Apalta, which is a Relais & Chateaux luxury property. Vibo Wine Lodge includes breakfast in the coffee shop on property and they also have two other restaurants, the Rayuela Restaurant and the Vibo Wine and Food Studio. On property you can hike, borrow bikes, enjoy the pool, go wine tasting or set up horseback riding. They also did a wine tour with Colchagua Wine Tours, which was only $125 for a day with a private driver (you pay for the tasting separately.) Tamara enjoyed wine tasting at Montgras Winery and Maquis Winery. They had a nice lunch at Fuego Apalta on the Montes Winery (but she didn't like the wine at Montes.) Tastings of the "icon" wines, which are the top wines, are about $40-50 per person. Clos Apalta Residence is also an excellent place to go for lunch or dinner and you can go wine tasting at the winery. In Casablance, they stayed at La Casona, which is a hacienda which has been converted to a hotel on the grounds of the Matetic Vineyards. This was all-inclusive because there isn't a lot nearby to eat. But the menu doesn't change so it gets repetitive if you are there for any length of time. The package also includes excursions and they did a biodynamic wine tour and tasting, mountain biking, and hiking. They also offer horseback riding and excursions to towns. They took a day trip to the coast and visited Pablo Neruda's house. Related Episodes: Chile's Atacama Desert Wine tasting in Northern Italy

In today's episode, we chat with Marc Vetri, an award-winning chef, restaurateur, and cookbook author who helped put Philadelphia on the national culinary map.Marc is the founder of Vetri Cucina and the force behind acclaimed restaurants like Osteria, Pizzeria Vetri, and Fiorella. His journey began in a South Philly kitchen alongside his Sicilian grandmother, and took him from dishwashing as a teen to working under Wolfgang Puck in Los Angeles — before buying a one-way ticket to Northern Italy that would cement his path. Beyond the kitchen, Marc is a passionate mentor, musician, and founder of the Vetri Community Partnership, a nonprofit helping kids and families discover the power of cooking and nutrition.Join us as Marc shares the origin story behind his culinary empire — and why the best chefs don't just cook, they care.

In part three of his series on the unifications of Germany and Italy, Dan talks about the turbulent 1850s and early 60s. In Germany, this is a time of mass industrialization. With the regional economy growing at a record pace, Prussia and Austria engage in saber-rattling diplomacy over the future of the German Confederation.   Meanwhile, the new King of Piedmont-Sardinia, Victor Emmanuel II, aims to do what his father could not: conquer all of Italy. Taking advantage of Austrian weakness – and a burgeoning alliance with France – he and three other men will engineer a revolution that unites the Apennine Peninsula for the first time since the Roman Empire.   TABLE OF CONTENTS: Chapter One: The German Question – 00:04:22 Chapter Two: The Erfurt Union – 00:30:15 Chapter Three: The (Austrian) Empire Strikes Back – 00:42:24 Chapter Four: Enter Bismarck – 01:03:59 Chapter Five: Goodbye, Friedrich Wilhelm – 01:32:59 Chapter Six: Repression in Lombardy – 01:41:19 Chapter Seven: Enter Camillo Cavour – 01:51:20 Chapter Eight: Enter Victor Emmanuel – 02:04:32 Chapter Nine: The Crimean War – 02:17:48 Chapter Ten: Engineering a Revolution – 02:39:34 Chapter Eleven: The War for Northern Italy – 03:05:02 Chapter Twelve: The Expedition of the Thousand – 03:34:34 Chapter Thirteen: The Dictator of Sicily – 04:14:24 Chapter Fourteen: The Conquest of Southern Italy – 04:28:49 Chapter Fifteen: The Proclamation of the Kingdom of Italy – 04:51:04 Chapter Sixteen: Rome and the Risorgimento – 05:13:43   SUBSCRIBE TO RELEVANT HISTORY, AND NEVER MISS AN EPISODE!

In Part Two of my conversation with cookbook author and recipe developer Maria Zizka, we dig even deeper and explore her work in Americanizing recipes, and her experience teaching at the University of Gastronomic Sciences in Northern Italy. Maria explains how she guides students through the many ways to write a recipe—always encouraging them to embrace their personal voice in the process. “Only you can write your version of a recipe,” she says, and that authenticity is what makes recipes truly shine. We also touch on Preserving Tradition Through Adaptation, Why Voice and Specificity Matter in Recipe Writing and the Challenges of Ingredient Translation including the complexity of ingredient substitutions when adapting international recipes for American kitchens....

For tonight, I tell you the stories of different "lost treasures" and other legends attached to:1- The Knights Templar, a religious military order that emerged during the Crusades but became so wealthy and influential that it made powerful enemies;2- The Cathars, a Christian sect from the 12th to 14th Centuries in Southern France and Northern Italy, which was persecuted until it disappeared;3- The Fabergé Eggs, exquisite pieces of jewelry that were made for the Romanovs in Saint Petersburg in the decades before the Russian Revolution. Out of more than fifty, six eggs are now missing, but as the story of the "Third Imperial" egg indicates, they could maybe reappear one day.  Welcome to Lights Out LibraryJoin me for a sleepy adventure tonight.

In the latest episode of the Nomad Futurist podcast, Alessandro Lombardi, President of Elea Data Centers, shares his compelling journey and valuable insights into the digital infrastructure landscape in Brazil. Co-hosts Nabeel Mahmood and Phillip Koblence guided the conversation, exploring Lombardi's transition from Italy to Brazil and his evolution in the tech industry.Lombardi's career trajectory exemplifies the power of embracing change and following one's passion. His unique background, combining majors in philosophy and economics with an early fascination for technology, set the stage for a diverse career path. This journey began with web editing during the internet boom and culminated in his current leadership role in the data center industry:"My beginning in technology was named Atari and then Commodore. So, it was gaming. And I think I am proud of it … I recognize that since we all started with that, we are in a generation that maybe understands a little bit more what's happening."This early engagement with technology proved instrumental in shaping Lombardi's future career choices and his ability to navigate the rapidly evolving tech landscape.A pivotal moment in Lombardi's career came with his move to Brazil. What began as a short-term assignment with PwC transformed into a permanent relocation after meeting his future wife. This decision marked a significant turning point in both his personal and professional life. Lombardi emphasizes the importance of following one's instincts when making such life-altering decisions:"I understand because it's not easy to do [these] kind[s] of steps. You really need to follow your instinct – like your true passion – because she now is the mother of my three kids and I'm so happy."Throughout the podcast, Lombardi provides insightful comparisons between the work cultures in Italy and Brazil. His observations shed light on the contrasting approaches to innovation he encountered in the two countries:"Northern Europe or Northern Italy, it's a tough place to live in. Like people, they work a lot... If you want to do something new, they say, ‘Alessandro, if it was good, somebody already would have done it. Forget about doing something new. Just stay where you are.' That's kind of typical. And on the contrary, Brazil is an emerging market. So people, when you come with something new, they are happy. They embrace it."Lombardi's journey serves as a powerful reminder of the value in trusting your instincts and embracing new experiences. His story illustrates how a diverse background can lead to unique opportunities and innovative paths in the ever-changing tech landscape.Stay connected with Alessandro Lombardi on LinkedIn.

No city stirs the imagination more than Venice. From the richly ornamented palaces emerging from the waters of the Grand Canal to the dazzling sites of Piazza San Marco, visitors and residents alike sense they are entering, as fourteenth-century poet Petrarch remarked, "another world." During the Middle Ages and Renaissance, Venice was celebrated as a model republic in an age of monarchs. In the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, it became famous for its freewheeling lifestyle characterized by courtesans, casinos, and Carnival. When the city fell on hard times following the collapse of the Republic in 1797, a darker vision of Venice as a place of decay, disease, and death took hold. Today tourists from around the globe flock to the world heritage site as rising sea levels threaten its very foundations. Venice: The Remarkable History of the Lagoon City (Oxford UP, 2023) reveals the adaptations to its geographic setting that have been a constant feature of living on water from Venice's origins to the present. It examines the lives of the women and men, noble and common, rich and poor, Christian, Jew, and Muslim, who built not only the city but also its vast empire that stretched from Northern Italy to the eastern Mediterranean. It details the urban transformations that Venice underwent in response to environmental vulnerability, industrialization, and mass tourism. Alongside the city's commercial prominence has been its dramatically changing political role, including its power as a city-state, regional stronghold, and overseas empire, as well as its impact on the development of fascism. Throughout, Dennis Romano highlights the city's cultural achievements in architecture, painting, and music, particularly opera.

Thomas Doxiadis worked in the construction field before becoming an architect, eventually pursuing a Masters of Architecture and a Masters of Landscape Architecture at Harvard. He served in the Greek Navy and later worked as an architect for the Greek Olympics and at the same time taught at university. He then started his business which has been running for 25 years.  Managing Work Life Balance and Personal Growth Expanding from his professional life, Thomas spent the next 10 years exploring his mind, heart, and relationships with people. Through therapy, he found that people are much more interesting than he thought. He joined a coaching group called "Get Your Six," which focuses on treating oneself better through health, sleep, nutrition, exercise, relationships, emotions, and beliefs. The group is structured around six people sharing experiences and helping each other through different situations.   Life Lessons and Changes Thomas talks about life changes related to health, sleep, nutrition, and exercise. He explains that building a business from scratch and trying to be at the top of his field took a lot of focus and energy away from self-care. He emphasizes the importance of taking care of oneself, eating right, sleeping right, learning basic breathing and meditation techniques, and changing priorities. He also emphasizes exploring and understanding the stories of our lives that we construct and how we spend our energy.  Working in the Greek Navy Thomas shares his experiences in the Greek Navy, where he spent time guarding armaments and working with 18-year-olds, which was a strange situation for him after his time in the professional world, but he found solace in having fun and laughing more than he had in the last decade. He shares a story when he was on guard duty and thought he was under siege. Working in the Athens Olympics Thomas recounts his experience working on the Athens Olympics. He had a positive experience despite the short turn around time of three years to complete construction.  He worked on the design and construction of mega projects such as parts of  the Athenian sea front and coastal areas, Olympic villages, and sports infrastructure. Additionally, he worked on setting up the city's flags, banners, and animation programs. He also spent two years dealing with the environmental and green aspects of the Olympics. His highlight was organizing the first mass olive transplanting, which involved moving the old Athens horse race track to a new area and becoming the Olympic Equestrian Center. The area was full of ancient olive groves and vineyards, some of them as old as 3000 years. The trees were transplanted to create a park and part of the Olympic venues. The trees were reused for the redevelopment of the Athens airport, ensuring they would be a valuable asset for future generations. Growing up in Greece Thomas grew up in Greece in the seventies when Greece was still relatively untouched by economic growth and tourism. The rapid economic changes after Greece entered the European Union led to the destruction of places he loved. He studied architecture and landscape architecture to find a win-win solution to building on sensitive, culturally and ecologically important places. His work and portfolio have been built over the past 25 years, focusing on resolving this problem. Sustainable Development and Landscapes of Cohabitation Thomas has worked on several projects since his time at the Olympics. One of his most proud projects was working on a pristine Aegean Island, where he and a high school friend developed techniques called the landscapes of cohabitation, which focuses on symbiosis between the environment and human activity. This approach has transformed the local ecosystem and changed people's minds about landscape work. His most recent project is with an MIT graduate from Northern Italy who built an energy corporation in the US and now invests in a small village in Tuscany. They are working on a 200-year sustainability plan, involving climate modeling and climate modeling to understand the future of the village and bringing vitality back to rural areas.  Progressive Adaption to Climate Change  Thomas' goal is to revive the countryside and lead it towards a better and more sustainable future, especially as climate change makes a better future more difficult. The European Union has been funding climate change adaptation programs for countries and universities for the last decade. These programs aim to understand the main impacts of climate change on public health, infrastructure, economy, and tourism. Landscapes are not just visual representations of environmental changes, but also provide a spatial understanding of what will happen due to climate change. Thomas talks about nine case studies that have been conducted across Greece, covering a region the size of Cape Cod. The eastern Mediterranean will be one of the most impacted areas globally, with heat waves, fire, and changing conditions. The European Union stopped spending on mitigation a decade ago and started spending on adaptation. Thomas explains what this entails.  Design for Living Systems Landscape architects are professionals who design for living systems, not just concrete or steel. They have the skill set to deal with earth, water, plants, animals, and living systems in physical space. The profession has transitioned from being mainly about aesthetics to problem-solving around nature in the past. The advice given by landscape architects is not necessarily heated or useful, but rather based on their experiences and lessons learned. He believes that architects should focus on the bright goal of a better future through design but also be more pragmatic about their surroundings. Thomas also discusses his artistic projects, such as the Castriani mine restoration. He believes that architecture is useful for solving problems through giving form to things, and that the way things look is important because it serves as communication and storytelling. People understand the world through narratives, so architects have the opportunity and responsibility to configure a part of the world that tells people something to add to their own narrative. Influential Harvard Professors and Courses During his time at Harvard, he took courses in Ed Wilson's Evolutionary Biology and Moral Reasoning 22. He also studied landscape ecology at the Harvard Design School, where landscape ecology was a driving force and he learned how you could design with nature and for nature rather than against it, which set him on his life path both professionally and intellectually. He enjoyed playing music and attending international talks at the Kennedy School. This experience helped him become more international and consider himself a citizen of the world.  Timestamps: 01:40: Personal and Professional Reflections  04:38: Coaching Group Experience  07:17: Changes in Life and Health Practices  12:26: Experiences in the Greek Navy  15:47: Role in the Athens Olympics 25:11: Projects and Philosophy  28:40: National Climate Change Adaptation Program  35:43: Mitigation and Adaptation Strategies  39:10: Role of a Landscape Architect  41:29: Advice to Younger Self  44:09: Artistic Projects and Influences from Harvard  Links: Website:  https://doxiadisplus.com/ Website: Got Your 6 Team Society for the Environment and Cultural Change Website: Ελληνική Εταιρεία Περιβάλλοντος & Πολιτισμού  Featured Non-profit This week's featured non-profit is Legal Services NYC recommended by Lisa Velasquez who reports: “Hi.

Abbiamo preso spunto dalla domanda di una nostra ascoltatrice che ci chiedeva il significato della canzone “Klama” cantata da Marco Mengoni durante un'edizione del Festival della Taranta, per raccontarvi le tradizioni musicali di alcune regioni italiane. Siamo partiti proprio dalla Puglia per parlare di taranta e pizzica, per passare poi a Napoli con la musica neomelodica, al canto alpino delle regioni del Nord Italia, fino al canto a tenore della Sardegna, riconosciuto dall'UNESCO come Patrimonio Culturale Immateriale dell'Umanità.

From the 12th century to Renaissance, the Ordelaffi family ruled the commune of Forli, in Northern Italy. On and off. Also, on and off again. When they weren't fighting others for the commune -- Florence, the Emperor, the Pope -- they were fighting each other, and in 1376, poison became a favorite weapon, when Sinibaldi I Ordelaffi poisoned first his uncle and then his cousin, so that he could have Forli. He's not even our protagonist, though, because we lit, for this episode, on Pino III Orderlaffi, who started poisoning wives, a sibling, and his mom, and is therefore sort of iconic in the history of Ordelaffi badnesses. Michelle loved this episode, cause she got to learn all about poison in medieval and Renaissance Italy. She will tell you all about it.

The first Venice episode was # 247. I came back and added more to that here and the following episode.  In this episode, the FAQ is: Would I return to Venice? Today's Destination is Venice, Italy Part 2 of 3 Today's Misstep: Spend more time in the region of Northern Italy.   Travel Advice: In Venice, Get Lost FAQ: Would I go back to Venice?   Answer: The answer is yes because I hardly saw the main attractions the first time. I was in a crowd of tourists, and it was under construction. I think there will be better crowd control now that there's a fee. Today's destination: Venice, Italy Part 2 of 3 Venice is called the City of Dreams.  It's the capital of northern Italy's Veneto region and is built on over 100 small islands in a lagoon in the Adriatic Sea. It has no roads, just canals—including the Grand Canal thoroughfare—lined with Renaissance and Gothic palaces. The central square, Piazza San Marco, contains St. Mark's Basilica, tiled with Byzantine mosaics, and the Campanile bell tower, which offers views of the city's red roofs.  Yes, Venice is sinking. This is due to sediment settling and freshwater pumping from below ground. What are the main places to explore here?   Take the canals everywhere, because there are no cars.   So many corners. Away from glitter and gloss. 70,000 people live here. Tens of millions vacation here. https://whc.unesco.org/en/list/394/   Detours throughout the city due to construction. Rialto Bridge is in the middle of the busy tourist activity.   If I had more time, I would have spent it in Venice. I only had four days, which got me more interested in being part of the city life. I'd go back outside of the summertime. I'd visit the historical sites and ride the vaporettas, trains, and buses.

The Voynich Manuscript. Dubbed as one of the most mysterious books in the world, the manuscript is a 15th-century codex written in an unknown script and adorned with bizarre and bewildering illustrations. As the boys unpack the manuscript's history, they trace its origins back to the early 1400s, when it was believed to be crafted in Northern Italy during the Italian Renaissance. The episode starts with an exploration of the manuscript's physical attributes. The Voynich Manuscript is famous for its peculiar botanical illustrations that do not match any known plants, astrological diagrams, and surreal scenes. This bizarre content fuels the central mystery: the meaning and purpose of the manuscript, which remains undeciphered despite the efforts of numerous cryptographers and scholars throughout the centuries, including those during both World Wars. The boys discuss various theories about the creator of the Voynich Manuscript. Was it the work of an alchemist? A secret communication between spies? Or perhaps a hoax meant to baffle and mislead? They entertain the idea that it might have been created by Roger Bacon, a medieval philosopher known for his works in the fields of mathematics, astronomy, and languages. This theory intertwines with speculative narratives about the manuscript being intended as a pharmacopeia or a treatise on nature from another world. The boys also discuss more fantastical theories, such as the manuscript being a guidebook from another dimension or an alien artifact left for human discovery. They bring on a linguistics expert to discuss the structure and patterns within the text, examining whether the language could be a cipher, an invented script, or simply gibberish designed to confuse. scientific analyses conducted on the manuscript's parchment and ink, revealing carbon dating results and details about the materials used. This scientific perspective grounds the discussion, bringing a tangible touch to the otherwise mystifying narrative. To conclude, the hosts reflect on the cultural and historical significance of the Voynich Manuscript. They debate its place in history and the possibility that its code might one day be cracked, providing insights into medieval European thought and the human penchant for creating and solving puzzles. Whether a seasoned cryptographer or a casual enthusiast of historical mysteries, listeners will find themselves drawn into the labyrinthine twists and turns of the Voynich Manuscript's story. The episode is not only a journey through a peculiar artifact but also a meditation on the human desire to explore, understand, and, perhaps, ultimately remain baffled by the unknown.

“He must be handed over to a tribunal of the people so it can judge him quickly. We want this, even though we think an execution platoon is too much of an honor for this man. He would deserve to be killed like a mangy dog.” — Future Italian President Sandro Pertini about Benito Mussolini “The world unfortunately continues to be a battlefield where different egos clash, repeating the mistakes of the past.” — Federigo Giordano “Death to the Nazi-Fascists.” — The closing quote of most letters written by Federigo Giordano during WWII I am not done with stories of resistance from Italy during WW II. Today, I'll tell the story of a friend, one of the very last partisan commanders to still be alive—Federigo Giordano (battle name “Gek.”) His name is still recognized in some towns in Northern Italy since he was the one to lead his men to liberate them from Fascists and Nazis. In this episode we'll tackle the growth of racism within Fascist ideology, becoming a partisan in the mountains of Northern Italy, rejecting the Alexander Proclamation, saving American aviators, participating in the capture of Benito Mussolini, Mussolini ‘hanging' in Piazzale Loreto, drunk Nazis in one room while partisans hide in the attic, having to explain to a 90+ year old lady why you killed her sister over 70 years earlier, and much more.
