In a country as diverse and amazing as Italy it’s hard to pick a favorite part, but for me it’s the Emilia- Romagna region. One of Europe’s oldest continuously inhabited regions, the history here astounds me every time I visit. There’s a lot more to love though than just the past, including some of the world’s most famous dishes and luxury car brands that almost everyone has heard of. Months, if not years could be spent exploring the cities and towns of Emilia-Romagna, but in this week’s episode a true expert joins us to share what he loves to see and do in his home region.
