  • book review for "When Your Heart Finds Its Home" by Ilene and Gary Modica Click to view review

Grazie Mille!

Our first book, “Our Italian Journey,” was written during our year in Italy experiencing the seducing charm of the country. We share a vivid picture of life in Italy in our first-ever book. Let us be your guide to the most beautiful places in Italy. Available on Amazon.

Now this well-received book is an audiobook narrated by us. Please use our referral link for the US to get Audible.

Did you know we now live in Lucca? How we got here is the subject of our second book, “When Your Heart Finds Its Home,” also available on Amazon.

“Tuscany Treasures- A Journey Through 31 Towns” is a guidebook, but not in the traditional sense. Amazon.

Now on Audible!

  • Our Italian Journey is now an audiobook available on Audible Link for USA Audible
