The Question on the Beach“If you were going to send me to Italy, where would you send me?”He asked it on the beach over Labor Day weekend, right after someone had finished bragging to him about what a great Italy planner I was.

While putting the request together I had done my usual first pass online, and Borgo Egnazia, the hotel that has sat at the top of my bucket list for years, was showing nothing for our June 2027 dates. A buyout had taken the week before I ever asked for it. And we could not move the dates, because our summer is anchored to my daughter’s school program in Greece, which sta
