Halloween in Italy - Ognissanti and Festa dei Morti
Technically speaking, Italy does not have a Halloween per se, but the tradition is slowly gaining more popularity. Carnevale, the holiday which comes 40 days before Easter to celebrate Lent, is the main holiday where there are costumes, candy, etc. But Italian retailers are noting that candy sales around Halloween have been increasing the last ten years or so, as the Halloween tradition may be taking...

A Day to remember, 9/11
A Day to remember Do you remember where you were on that dreaded day, exactly 6 years ago, when the Twin Towers came crumbling down? It is one of those moments in time that is indelibly etched into our memories forever. Just about everyone remembers where they were, what they were doing, etc. Perhaps the only other time in the history of our country where that was true, was during the Kennedy assassination, and the...

Another masterpiece by Eros Ramazzotti
Long known for his passionate songs about love and life, Eros delivers another fine album to add to his already impressive resume with the release of Eros. Here are some of my favorite songs: Ma che bello questo amore This is probably my favorite song as it is about the transformations that one goes through when someone falls in love - how it can arrive unexpectedly and out of the blue ("a volte...
