We have decided to collect our experiences and points of view in these pages so that all those who love, miss or are curious about the Italian way of life can find reliable resources here.

Dolce Vita?

Our name and inspiration is La Dolce Vita which literally translates into “the sweet life” and refers to the concept of light-heartedness but also to the search for beauty and quality in every aspect of life.
The expression became worldwide famous thanks to the cinematographic masterpiece “La Dolce Vita” directed by Federico Fellini in 1960. It representing Italy during the post war economic boom with his ups and downs.
