So honored to have the project that @scooteromatours & I created featured in Time Magazine. Napoli is my forever muse and having it celebrated as one of the ‘World’s Greatest Places’ makes my soul sing! ✨time.com/collection/worlds-g…

Il #26luglio, festa di #SantAnna, era una delle ricorrenze più importanti nella Firenze tra '300 e '500 perché ricordava la liberazione dei fiorentini dal giogo tirannico di Gualtieri di Brienne, cacciato in quel giorno nel 1343.

My absolute favorite kind of tour—Dante with interested and interesting people!

Tina Turner. Your life was an inspiration in every way. You were so immensely powerful, creative, truthful, transformative, and loving. Thank you for it all.

This evening, #sunset at the Colosseo Quadrato #FendiHQ, like an altarpiece painted in light itself. #Rome never runs out of surprises.
