Annette Joseph lives half the year in La Fortezza, a medieval fortress in the countryside of northern Tuscany. She loves entertaining and offers creative retreats and workshops teaching styling, photography, painting and cooking. And did I mention shopping?
Annette's book about the renovation journey of La Fortezza is covered in her book, "Italy is My Boyfriend." Her new book about the retreats she holds there, "My Italian Guestbook," is a fun-centric book about life-changing experiences, crazy parties and great food. You feel like you're there and realize you really want to be there!
If you ever dreamed of harvesting Italian grapes for wine, picnicking in olive groves, dining on local streets, painting al fresco, learning to cook like an Italian or enjoying movies under the stars, this is a must listen!
