Cristina, You had issued this friend request to us quite awhile ago...unfortunatelynee it got "lost" in my email never never land.  We would like to set up an interview with you in the future for our travel radio show, Travel Planners.  Please respond to our show email address instead of through Tripatini and we can see what dates you might be available.  First I need to establish if you speak English and have access to a land line phone for the interview.  I love your photos.  Are you on Facebook too?  Sue McCarthy  kevinandsuetravel@yahoo.com

Love your pictures - they are spectacular! And thanks so much for your comment on my prosecco zone post. I was trying to reply to it, but unfortunately deleted it instead!

Ciao, Maria Cristina! Thanks for the "friending" on Tripatini. I love Milano and have several friends there, and also in Verona. I'm hoping to take a small group to Le Marche this fall but, who knows? Perhaps we'll come and go via Milano! I'm going to sign up for your blog. Please check out mine, as well -- we're fellow poets! www.travelthewriteway.com. A presto -- Linda

An Italian Personal Shopper in Milan...

Finally I made it! My ebook about Personal Shopping is available in English too! An Italian Personal Shopper in Milan... is about my personal experience on the fascinating world of Personal Shopping! 

Very often I was and I am asked what my profession is about. All answers can now be read on this little book. Well, more than a book I consider it an open interview or rather a friendly chat! Should you have more questions I would be thrilled to answer!

Happy reading and…
