| Publisher Description: Perhaps you love to travel; Maybe you love all things Italian; Perhaps you want to know more about about Italy's small towns; Or maybe you just want to hear juicy stories and live vicariously through college students who were immersed in Le Marche. Whatever the reason, join four college students and a patient professor as they embark on an adventure like no other. The first of its kind; this journey entails daily trips to small towns in Le Marche; with Camerano as home base. If you're looking for parties in an exotic land and girls-gone-wild action, this book is not for you. The following pages are a humble attempt to better understand the Italian culture. Running into every problem imaginable, you'll laugh and cringe as the team makes their way through the central eastern region of Italy - Le Marche. Le Marche is a true gem. Authentic Italian culture is actively present here because it is virtually untouched by typical floods of tourists. The rustic paradise has an aura rich with tradition. It's this atmosphere plus the balmy climate which initially lures us into Le Marche. Mom-and-Pop shops reign in this region and the aroma of home cooking fills in the air. |
