Thanksgiving in Italy - What Americans Should Know Before Going Abroad
Ever wondered what it’s really like to spend Thanksgiving in Italy? In this episode, I share what it’s truly like to experience the holiday abroad - where Thanksgiving Day is simply another Thursday, and life continues at its graceful Italian pace. November in Italy feels quietly magical: the air turns crisp, the light softens, and the country moves into a slower, more intimate rhythm. Markets brim with seasonal produce, vineyards wind down their harvests, and cafés glow with the warmth of conversation and comfort food.
I'll tell you what you should know before traveling to Italy during this time of year, from the weather and regional atmosphere to the rich seasonal cuisine that defines late autumn. You’ll hear stories from my own Italian Thanksgivings, reflections on finding gratitude away from tradition, and tips for creating a trip that feels deeply authentic. Whether you’re wandering through misty Venetian canals, enjoying a long lunch in Rome, or sipping Chianti beside a Tuscan fireplace, Thanksgiving in Italy invites you to slow down, savor the moment, and rediscover what this season is truly about.
So if you’ve ever thought about trading your turkey dinner for a slow Italian meal and a toast to gratitude under the autumn sky, this one’s for you.
