Valarie

I flirted in Italian with an Italian Chef. It was late May and I was there for medical reasons and not feeling very pretty. My goal when I travel is to always eat dinner where I have never eaten before (a Non-Chain). This led me to Little Italy in Cleveland, Ohio. It was typical Italian and I flirted with the Chef and he back. I spoke to him in broken Italian and he made me the perfect Profiterole and Cannolli. His name was Vincente and he writes me to this day. We exchange recipes and facts of Life. I will never forget him.

I went here for the 2nd time in Dec. 05. A friend was working with the Corps in Passe Christian, MS to help with Hurrican Katrina clean up and my whole goal was to relax, unwind and be spoiled here at the Sandestin Hilton Resort. Instead, I checked into the hotel in Destin and made my way to emotionally and mentally rescue my friend from all he had seen. After being beside him for 3 days, I was so grateful to be able to return to the Sandestin Resort in Destin and civilization. Hurricane Katrina had humbled me and I realized that no matter how little you think you have, there are others that have less. I appreciated my stay here more than ever and intend to make it a yearly trip.

This is the most beautiful place on earth. Campania! and Sorrento! Where friends await, even before you meet them, you are welcome at any Villa, and the food is generous along with the culture.
