UPCOMING! APULIA - AN EXTRAORDINARY HERITAGE Italy - October 13-24, 2010
Ancient cities: The beautiful city of Gallipoli, Lecce, the Florence of the South, the exquisite sea light, the white façades of Otranto, Locorotondo and Alberobello with the Trulli, the conical roofs on the mysterious stone buildings that fill the landscape, the olive harvest and century old olive mills. All this beauty will be the backdrop of our week in Apulia, the Heal of Italy. A region not that explored by tourists, where the locals are really still very local. We shall be based in the charming Masseria Appidè, www.appide.it owned by Massimo Rota, of Milanese origins but who has spent all his life in the Salento. The landscape made of century old olive trees, the street life in the ancient towns, the markets as well as the excellent local cuisine and the ‘Pizzica Pizzica’ music will be your inspiration in this workshop co-taught with Elizabeth Opalenik. Class size is limited to care for your creative photographic needs. $2800 includes most meals, shared rental cars and lodging. Companions welcome $2400. Email for more details. Fly to Brindisi.
