Italian fashion and flair for style is world famous. But in this episode, we get close to home and discuss the reality of where to find unique, one-of-a-kind, and even Made in Italy products that are worth investing in. We chat about how shopping where you are can turn into a meaningful investment in the Italian people and their craft, as well as Italian culture and generations of artistry. We share how leaving your money locally translates (literally) into positive impact tourism. And, guess what? In return, it gives you high-quality products you will enjoy (and remember!) for a lot of time to come!
