The Houston Italian Festival
The Houston Italian Festival is the premiere event in Texas for all things Italian, founded with the mission of celebrating Italian culture and heritage while sharing it with people of all backgrounds and walks of life. It is a weekend that celebrates the diversity of Houston and Texas as a whole, where people are connected by a love for Italian food, culture, and maybe a few glasses of wine. Festa Italiana takes place every October and features authentic Italian food, wine, and sweets, live entertainment and performances, and activities for all ages, such as language classes, cooking classes and demonstrations, pasta eating contests, the grape stomp, a bocce ball tournament, classic car show, interactive sidewalk art, film screenings, and more.
In 2018, the festival will celebrate 40 years in the city of Houston, and will be held on the grounds of the University of St. Thomas from Thursday, October 11 to Sunday, October 14, 2018.
Proceeds from the Houston Italian Festival benefit several local non-profits including the Italian Cultural & Community Center (which provides numerous educational programs, scholarship and events throughout the year for all Houstonians to enjoy).

Region of Tuscany (Toscana) is in the central part of the peninsula, on the shores of the Tyrrhenian Sea. The relief of the area quite diverse - the north-east and east of the low ridges stretch of the Apennines, Pratomagno and the Chianti area, in the north - ridges of the Ligurian and Apuan Alps, central areas occupied by hilly areas, and closer to the coast and the valley of the Arno River begins a narrow strip of plains.
Tuscany - one of the most beautiful regions of Italy, a place of unique historical richness, the birthplace of many areas of Italian schools of painting and architecture. This is an amazing place of formation of ancient Apennine culture, the Etruscan civilization, the Roman Empire and the state of the Lombards, and the birthplace of the Renaissance. It focused a tremendous amount of unique cultural objects, so for six Tuscan cities fall into the UNESCO World Heritage List (the historical centers of Florence, Siena, San Gimignano and Pienza, the area of Pisa and the Val d'Orcia).

What’s it Really Like Living in Italy? Food, Wine and The Weather

Eat and Drink Like the Italians
As much as the Mediterranean diet is in evidence throughout the country, remember that it is not a green light to over-indulge.
The secret is to take your time, like the Italians, when eating the food and drinking the wines, and to enjoy the experience.

Welcome back to Part 2 of this series: What's it Really Like Living in Italy?
Previously, the simple task of immersing yourself into the social aspects of Italian life were covered.
What we all take for granted in our own comfortable surroundings is in stark contrast to having to adapt to a totally new environment, that's why learning the language, conversing with the locals and making new friends is the basis of enjoying la dolce vita.
It doesn't matter if you're an introvert.
You have no choice other than to get out of your comfort zone and to socialise as much as possible.
It's a mind-set issue.
Keep the very reason why you wanted to live in Italy in the first place at the front of your mind; crack a BIG smile; and go and enjoy yourself!
You'll get to learn and love everything that's good about Italy sooner, rather than later.
And talking about love, what follows are three things that will help make you feel at home quicker than anything else.
In the meantime, to ensure you get more videos on living in Italy - la dolce vita - please subscribe... and click the Bell icon to avoid missing out on important news, and more videos like this one.
Continuing from the first video - Part 1 - here are those 3 things that will make you feel at home:
4. The Food.
As much as the Mediterranean diet is in evidence throughout the country, remember that it's not a green light to over-indulge.
Plus, the Italians have as much a sweet tooth as anyone else on the planet.
The solution – stick to the healthy foods – the olives, tomatoes, vegetables and fruit, and just opt for the occasional gelato and tiramisu.
As for pasta and pizza, if that’s your thing, that’s fine, go ahead and enjoy…. but, do yourself a favour and work out regularly at the gym, and go on walks so you can explore your neighbourhood at the same time.
5. The Wine.
You’re spoilt for choice in Italy.
Despite what you might hear from the wine snobs, Italy IS the wine centre of the world.
Now, it goes without saying that wine is freely available, but be sensible with it.
At meal times, have a bottle of wine, but also have a bottle of water, too.
Getting drunk in Italy is frowned upon, so don’t make a fool of yourself.
The wine is to be appreciated and enjoyed, especially with your food.
6. The Geography.
The perception of long, hot summers, whilst true most of the time and in certain parts of the country, should be tempered by reminding yourself that northern Italy is home to the Alps and the Dolomites mountain ranges, and so in winter, snow sports are in abundance.
However, what most people don’t seem to appreciate, is that the whole spine of Italy running from the north down to the south is very mountainous, too.
For anyone who's not familiar with life in the mountains, the weather can turn very quickly and very unexpectedly.
It’s not unusual to have thunderstorms and torrential downpours in the middle of August, so much....

What’s it Really Like Living in Italy? Food, Wine and The Weather
WHERE TO EAT and WHAT TO DO in BOSTON
We spend two days exploring the city of Boston! We start out by making our way to the North End of the city and having lunch, and eventually head to a craft beer tap room. We then explore Beacon Hill and the Boston Common, finally making our way back to our hotel called Revere Hotel Boston Common. Our day ends with an awesome meal at Myers & Chang. The next day starts with a run through the Public Gardens and the Charles River Esplanade. We eventually finish off our time in the city with brunch at Little Donkey and a walk around Cambridge.

Places featured:
Boston’s North End:
The North End, Boston’s Little Italy, is a maze of narrow streets with some of the city’s oldest buildings. On the self-guided Freedom Trail, tourists pass historic sites like the 1680 Paul Revere House and the Old North Church, which played a key role at the beginning of the Revolutionary War. Italian restaurants, coffeehouses, pastry shops and old-school delis pack the area, especially on lively Hanover Street.
Myers+Chang:
Myers+Chang is all about fresh product, exotic herbs, redolent spices. Alison Hearn served as opening executive chef to develop a menu that reflects Joanne and Christopher's personal interpretation of Chinese, Thai, and Vietamese specialties. Today that philosophy is carried on by Chef Karen Akunowicz, who works closely with Joanne and Christopher to offer creative and craveable dishes served by people passionate about great service and dedicated to having fun.
Boston Public Garden:
The Public Garden, also known as Boston Public Garden, is a large park in the heart of Boston, Massachusetts, adjacent to Boston Common. It is a part of the Emerald Necklacesystem of parks, and is bounded by Charles Street and Boston Common to the east, Beacon Street to the north, Arlington Street and Back Bay to the west, and Boylston Streetto the south. The Public Garden was the first public botanical garden in America.
Boston’s Charles River:
Along the Boston side of the Charles River, which separates the city from Cambridge, is a roughly three-mile leafy path known as the Esplanade. To take in its full charm, begin your walk near the Museum of Science (at Monsignor O'Brien Highway and Storrow Drive), which, not incidentally, is a great place to occupy kids for several hours. As you amble west toward the Boston University Bridge, you'll pass playgrounds and marshes and places to rent sail boats and buy lemonade (you are, remember, visiting in good weather). You'll also be swarmed by flocks of wild geese and packs of joggers. More often than not, the joggers will leave you alone, but beware of the geese — they are easily riled and nasty.
Little Donkey, Boston:
Located in the heart of Cambridge's Central Square, Little Donkey is the latest collaboration of James Beard Award-winning chefs Ken Oringer & Jamie Bissonnette.
The concept offers a global small plates menu driven by the chefs' travel & its diverse new neighborhood. Guests will find themselves sampling unique flavors from around the world- from Jersey to Japan - heavily influenced by availabilities in local markets.
Cambridge, MA:
Just across the Charles River from the city of Boston, Cambridge commands a cult following all its own. This scholastic city combines working-class perseverance with high-class entertainment and university class schedules. From the quiet residential streets in its western edge to the hip squares and happening courtyards along its numerous college campuses, this constantly evolving area will continue to attract thinkers, dreamers, families, and professionals for semesters to come.
