Our newest show of the (Episode 9) is out!

SHOW RECAP: In this episode, we’re taking you to one of Italy’s lesser-known regions, the southern region of Basilicata. And to help us do that is local, Valerie Fortney () an American who has family roots in Basilicata and has lived in the region for 10 years. With more than 20 years of experience in the travel and tourism industry and along with her husband, Bryan Schneider, they’ve channeled this experience and passion for Basilicata into their company . A company that specializes in genealogy research and heritage tours of the region. Valerie is also a freelance travel writer and author of “52 Things to See and Do in Basilicata.”

WHAT TO EXPECT: Expect to learn that Basilicata is known for having one of the oldest third-oldest continually inhabited settlement in the world Matera. But also expect to be surprised about how much more this untouched region has to offer. From the picturesque town of Castelmezzano to the beautiful seaside coastline of Maratea and a glimpse into why this area is one of the most mountainous in all of Italy (there is even a "Dolomites of the south"). We are sure that Valerie will leave you inspired to not only start packing your bags to travel back to Italy soon but also consider seeing Basilicata from the country to the coast.

While Cassandra’s on the northern side of the Sorrento Peninsula, Laura is based in Amalfi on the southern side. It’s this southern side that is called the Amalfi Coast. We’re so close now! And we’re excited to record episodes of the Rediscover Italy podcast both in Italy and hopefully soon also in the same location! 🎙

On the last episode we talked about all the places we want to go in Italy this year. But we would love to hear from you. Are you traveling this year? Where are you heading in Italy?

Or what is on your bucket list? We are going to share any responses we get on our next podcast! So if you’re looking to be featured feel free to leave a comment below.

Co-Host Cassandra is back in Italy for her 6 month adventure! And she has ventured off her typical temporary home of Atrani to create a new summer base. This time in Sorrento.

While many know the main Corso (street) of this seaside town it’s often forgotten that this city dates back to 600 BC. And if you know where to look you can still find Roman ruins. There is also a historical fishing village (blessed by wonderful memories of films with Sophia Loren), orange trees lining the streets and wonderful undiscovered scenic location and nature escapes just a boat ride away.

While we touched in this last episode we sure will be chatting about this area again in the near future! In the meantime be sure to following along on our stories for updates in between broadcasts.

And yes this phot was from this week and Cassandra did go swimming! Have you taken a dip in these beautiful waters?

It was only a few years ago that we discovered this interesting fact about tramezzini. These are the sandwiches made on white bread and without the crust that are often served during aperitivo or found in bars throughout Italy.

We discovered they were invented in 1925 in the city of Torino.

So naturally I (Cassandra) had to go to the exact bar it was said to be created and experience this delightful snack all over again.

This is why we love Italy. A simple sandwich has a history dating back decades.

How amazing is it that no matter what city or region in Italy we visiting there is always a way to step back in time. There is always a story.

Out a curiosity how many people knew that the sandwich was called a tramezzino or invented in Torino?

We interrupt your schedule for a very important update. The peppermint candy beach umbrellas are back in Amalfi. Who’s dreaming of summer in Italy this year? Should we record a podcast about hitting the beach in Italy this summer? ⛱
