Three Things About Naples, Italy

Castel Nuovo (Maschio Angioino) in central Naples

The word CULTURE has a special meaning in Naples. It stands for collecting and illustrating the great heritage of the city. This heritage is made of many historical, artistic and archaeological sites, but moreover it is characterized by a modern spirit that gives the opportunity to create and re-create. Unlike cities in which art is stored in museums, Naples's distinctive mark is its folklore (folklore): people living and working among the artistic beauties of the city.

Three Things About Trieste, Italy

Miramare Castle

The Triestini are brave people: they sunbathe from February to the last sunburst in November! And they love to enjoy life, tasting one of the 40 different coffee cups or venturing into the Karst for biking, trekking, climbing or just looking for the popular "osmizas", private houses where you can taste local food and wine (karstic prosciutto, cheese and of course wine).

Three Things About Vancouver, B.C.

Venice is a city built on water, which offers a strong relationship with its citizens in their natural element. So, one of the main activities for a Venetian in their leisure time is to be close to water. Most local people own a boat, either a rowing boat or a motor boat. When the good season comes, everybody takes out their boats.

Salzburg is a very social and lively city. Locals enjoy to be part of what Salzburg is famous and loved for – they stroll through the inner city, meet with friends in one of the many coffeehouses for some coffee and cake, do their grocery shopping on the farmers’ markets and definitely partake in many of the city’s cultural offerings from concerts in the Mirabell Palace or on the Hohensalzburg Fortress to the renowned Salzburg Festival in the summer.
