ITALY FOR WOMEN>> Imagine creating your Italian dream vacation with a fun-loving, savvy girlfriend whispering in your ear. Susan Van Allen, author of 100 Places in Italy Every Woman Should Go, takes you up and down the beautiful boot to immerse yourself in Italy's pleasures: the palace where Audrey Hepburn lived in Roman Holiday, gardens where courtesans once frolicked, spas for pampering, beaches for relaxing, wine bars, jazz clubs, or skiing in the Dolomites. No matter your mood, even if you're simply armchair traveling, Italy awaits. Presentation with wine from Wine Wave Imports/ Marchesi di Barolo.

Hunt is a geographer, counselor, and writer who lives on the side of a mountain, where moose are far more frequent than humans.
