What do you want in the show? Are we moving to fast, or is it all too basic? What do you like what do you not like? More on money or more on travel?

In this Bologna, Italy Podcast episode:

Emilia Romagna is considered the belly of Italy. Bologna is regarded as having some of the best food, so not surprisingly this interview has a lot of food talk!

We discuss:

  • Feature Topic: Off Season Travel – Amazing Savings and the weather can be better than you think if you do your research. We detail exactly how we got to stay in a palatial apartment, 5 minutes walk from the beach for $350 a month.
  • Interviews: Nicholas Montemaggi from the Emilia Romagna Tourism talks about Bologna.
  • $5 Food & Fun – The Gelato Museum and Italy’s best kept secret… Aperitivo!
