Must go to the Amalfi coast having been to many other Italian towns and villages. Having to make do with de Carlo olive Oil at home in the sun. Thank you Tom Mueller for Extra Virginity

Great lessons! I always learn so much from traveling to different countries. I visited the islands of Greece in October and learned so much about how the small island villages operate. I went to a local hotel for a cooking class and ended up staying the entire day and night. The hotel owner invited the local wine producer, her brother, and anyone who drive by the hotel for a dinner eating the food we had cooked. It just shows how important community is and the importance of each person in a village being specialized in a skill and then sharing it with one another. One of my favorite trips of all time! (that also led to my favorite article "Eating Beyond Local in Greece").
