Gina visits with Massimo, of Al Buscion, in Stresa.

Gina Ruggiero, of Villa Vita International, is in Stresa as I write this. Her tour company has been featuring the Stresa Sights Mountains and Lakes Tour, and now Gina is visiting to meet with some people, get some ideas for the future. We believe that Stresa makes a perfect companion to some of the other locations Villa Vita regularly visits. Take a look at a few photos from Gina's current trip, and see them all on the Villa Vita Facebook page.

Villa Vita guests stay at Il Borgo, in the Tuscan countryside. This is a view near the pool.

Gina has been putting together unique and memorable vacations in Italy for many years now. Many of them are theme-based, such as her photography workshops in Tuscany, or her cooking vacations with Chef Giuseppe near Lucca. You can read about them all on her site.

Chef Giuseppe teaches proper pasta preparation to Villa Vita guests.

Gina arrived in Stresa from the Ligurian coast, so different yet only 2 1/2 hours away.

Stay tuned to see what ideas develop from Gina's trip to Stresa, and in the meantime, please take a look at her website for some great inspiration for your next Italian trip.

Stresa's proximity to Milan Malpensa airport, as well as to all these other popular destinations, makes it such an easy add-on to so many trips. For many, it becomes an unexpected highlight. It's definitely not too late to think about visiting Stresa this year. Autumn, as mentioned in the previous post, is so full of tradition, festivals, and foods. And it's never too early to start thinking about a trip for next year!
