Summary
Motivated by a desire to learn more about her family origins, Celeste Dickey and her husband Keith visited the small town in the Prosecco hills where her father and grandfather were born when they visited Italy in 2019. What they found was a generosity of spirit, beautiful connections and understanding of the life that her family left behind when they moved to California for new beginnings.
This is our second listener trip report where we hear from fellow travelers on their experiences planning and enjoying their trip to Italy. Everyone travels differently and we think it's great to hear perspectives from all kinds of trip planners. If you would like to participate, please send us an email to [email protected]
