Letters to Juliet




Letters to Juliet is a must-see for anyone who loves travel romantic comedies, aspires to be a writer, loves gastronomie, or has a passion for Italy. There was beautiful scenery, a restaurant with fresh made pasta drying on the rack, love letters, Italian villas, and nice eye candy. The movie was far better than I expected, and my boyfriend even enjoyed it. It was me all in a wrap... and I know many ladies in blog land would surely love it.

On a similar note, I have been working on a few of my own writing goals lately and have even pitched my book to two agents in New York, so keep your fingers crossed.

As far as Italy goes, I've found quite a few websites with great international real estate. I found a charming little gem in Abruzzo that needs renovation for cheap! No I didn't buy it... but just letting my HGTV and travel lovers out there know there are some great deals for those who love that kind of project. I so wanted to share a pic... but it is right-click protected. Check it out HERE ($19,000)!

There are all kinds of international properties out there for all price brackets, including those who don't think they can afford it, one just needs to research thoroughly, bear in mind foreign taxes, renovation costs, and watch out for mold and water damage. Some websites for your perusal... Viviun, Holprop, & ToscanaHouses.


Here's to Dreaming!

HGTV has featured a few homes recently in the Italian mountains on House Hunters International. Last Friday, I discovered the tiny 13th century village called Colletta di Castelbianco in Liguria, Italy. The village, near the Italian Riveria, is a short 15 minutes from the beach of Albenga. The town made entirely of stone was abanded in the 1950's and restored in the 1990's, and currently produces high-end olive oil.

Happy Traveling!!
