" where you are is who you are. The further inside you the place moves, the more your identity is intertwined in it. Never casual, the choice of place is the choice of something your crave." #francesmayes . . I DID IT! I Wrote a post on how I made it possible to live half the year in 🇮🇹 and half the year in NYC. But it comes out tomorrow! . . For now leave any last minute questions (here or on a DM) you may have for me about living abroad in Italy. If I can answer I will add to the blog post for tomorrow! www.travelitalianstyle.com (at Sorrento, Italy)

So bago matulog, spent watching "Under The Tuscan Sun". Walang sawa pa rin. One of my favorite movie of all time. Not because it is the most entertaining but I love the story of reinvention, hope, difficulty, friendship, love and love and of course endless possibility for those who dare! I love this film and I am still dying to have the book though. A must-see movie! 😉👌👍🎥🎬📀#BeInspired #BeFabulous #TheNotSoClassicMovie #DianeLane #UnderTheTuscanSun #TheBestMovieOfAllTime #FrancesMayes

"In places such as Machu Picchu, Palenque, Mesa Verde, Stonehenge, and now here, I always have the odd and somber consciousness of how time peels us off, how irretrievable the past really is, especially in these hot spots where you sense some matrix of culture took place. We can’t help but push our own interpretations on them. It’s a deep wish of philosophers and poets to search for theories of eternal return and time past being time present. Bertrand Russell was closer when he said the whole universe was created five minutes ago. We can’t recover the slightest gesture of those who chopped out this rock, not the placing of the first stone, the lighting of a fire to make lunch, the sniffing of an underarm, the sigh after lovemaking, niente. We can walk here, the latest little dots on the timeline. Knowing that, it always amazes me that I am intensely interested in how the map is folded, where the gas gauge is pointed, whether we have withdrawn enough cash, how everything matters intensely as it is disappearing.”

- Frances Mayes, Under the Tuscan Sun.
