We believe that you can learn much about a culture through food and
want to give three enthusiastic (and hungry) travelers the chance to
connect with and better understand the real food scene in...ITALY!
These keen cultural explorers will travel to Italy and discover the
history and techniques that makes Italian food a star on the world’s
stage – as well as the vibrant people that keep these traditions alive
through their passion and dedication.
Each recipient will spend one week in a different
region of Italy where they will meet their Italian ‘mentors’ – speaking
to local farmers and artisan providores, making pastas in nonnas’
kitchens, and getting your hands dirty pruning vines, milking goats and
making salamis. In that time, each recipient will be followed by a
cameraman to document their experiences as they uncover new techniques,
tastes and atttudes towards food and living.
