Around this

Everything else on in Abruzzo in October, the whole country in October, or the year in full in The Italian Year. And the town itself: Carsoli.

The Sunday letter

The 1,000 Italian towns most travelers skip.

Every Sunday we send one letter. The week's town, what is worth eating there, and when to turn up. It is free, and you can leave whenever you like.
