Hi

I am Morven. Our joint love of Italy began when my husband Phil took me to Sorento in the Italian Riviera for a surprise honeymoon in Aug 2003. This was Phil's first visit, I went first with a local youth band in 1999 although i think my love of Italy began before that when i went to an Italian restaurant in Edinburgh which was run by an Italian family with my mum and dad about 18 years ago. My love for the country goes much further than just a desire to find somewhere sunny. There's something amazing about actually being in a country which was a civilised country more than 2000 years ago. On our honeymoon we visited Pompeii and Vesuvius which was amazing to get a peek of how they lived. We are hoping to take our daughter on her first visit to Italy in October with my mum and dad when we are going to stay near Lake Garda.
