In general terms i feel i am qualified to answer questions on culture here and practical tips on how to get along in terms of life. Italy is a country that should you be looking to move beyond just a holiday visit requires a good knowledge of the legal system. Unfortunately a lot of my knowledge is based on a European bias and advising people outside of the EU zone requires more care but i do have a pretty wide knowledge of where to look and will be able to assist in that respect.

I can answer many types of questions about travel in Venice Italy including questions on the topics of transportation, wireless communications, restaurants and/or shopping for food, bars and nightlife, shopping for locally produced souvenirs, where to acquire personal necessities, how to do laundry, the Lido di Venezia, excursions to the outlying islands, and how to rent apartments for short terms stays. Unfortunately I am unable to answer questions about hotels in Venice and I do not hold myself forth as an expert on the historical sites of the city. But I can, of course, recommend my personal favorite museums!

The Amalfi Coast is my passion and area of expertise. I am very familiar with the history of the region. I can discuss accomodations in many of the towns along the coast. None of my passions are greater than that of food. I can be of great help with the food and restaurants of this coast. I believe that I have a total understanding of how to travel and get around when visiting this area.....something that can be quite helpful.
