Benvenuti! Or, as we say in Ireland, Céad Míle Fáilte!
I’m Hazel. Almost five years ago, I moved to Italy from Ireland alone for a job. Armed with zero Italian and a one-year plan, as Australia was meant to be the next stop (the classic Irish rite of passage), but Italy had other ideas.
Since then, I’ve been navigating the “silent” struggle of the language, and still very much getting used to the chaos of the Italian bureaucracy. Against all odds, I found my home on the shores of Lake Como. I fell in love with this country, and now I’m here to help you uncover it, too.
I’m here to share the real version of Italy. Whether it’s the famous postcard spots or the hidden corners I stumble upon along the way, I’m documenting the journey as I go.
Grab a coffee or perhaps something stronger, stay a while, and let’s plan your next Italian escape.
Salute agus Sláinte,
Hazel ☘️🇮🇹
