A Sicilian Experience: Wine Travel Food Art (WTFA) Grape EdVentures

by Michelle Prince

Overview

Benvenuti! "A Sicilian Experience" is a book about wine, travel, food and art. For a year, my husband and I lived in Nicolosi, Sicily, a quaint and picturesque town nestled at the base of Mount Etna, Europe's biggest and most active volcano. Sicily's old world charm and culture is expressed through their local festivals, foods, wines, and history. This is my experience living in Sicily, Italy. It gives personal perspective of the Sicilian culture that appears separate from that of mainland Italy. It explores Sicily's wine, food, off-the-beaten-path hidden gems and so much more you won't read about in tourist guide books and travel magazines. It paints a unique picture of this island in the crossroads of the Mediterranean Sea marine trade routes; a geopolitical strategically vied for location by many ancient civilizations. It shares the things I learned, experienced and appreciated about the island's diverse history and how it is exampled through the different towns and their local traditions, foods, wines, festivals and rich history.
