1st generation American, family from Friuli and Piemonte.  Highly experienced EU traveler (before covid!) with many trips to several regions of Italy.  Enjoy the travel, active walking ("wiking"), cooking classes and wine tastings.  Very much interested in going off the beaten tourist path as experience plus B2 language speaking proficiency allows for a freer form of  travel.  Still have family and former work colleagues to visit.  Enjoy immersion experiences.
