Italy
Life is a series of striking contrasts. โจ๐ฎ๐น๐๐พ Day and night. Peace and chaos. Rest and work. Nature and cities. Land and sky. The week and Shabbat. โจ Living (and loving!) the whirlwind, the intensity, the grind makes a rare peaceful respite all the more sacred, appreciated and magical. Shabbat Shalom!

My friend looked at me today and said, โMaybe we need to learn to pray.โ A Sunday to reflect, recharge, respect, reset. ๐๐พโจ๐ฎ๐น

Benvenuto a Ravello! ๐ต๐บ๐ฎ๐น My new favorite town sits atop the winding roads of the Amalfi Coast. If you need me, Iโll be perched in the sky over Italiaโฆ โฒ๏ธ๐ณ๐๐

The best pasta Iโve ever tasted in my entire life. ๐๐ฎ๐น๐ Glutenfree spaghetti with homemade pomodoro sauce made from four varietals of local Italian tomatoes. Yes, the roasted seasonal vegetable pizza is delectably glutenfree as well. The crisp regional white wine heavenly. The olive oil perfection. And the view of the Amalfi Coast unrivaled. #ladolcevita

True story: our car got towed, so we had to walk all the way down the mountain into the town of Amalfi. ๐คท๐ปโโ๏ธ๐ซ๐ฃ๐บโ๏ธ๐ฎ๐น๐ฎ๐ปโโ๏ธ๐๐๐พโจ What we thought was an epic fail, frustrating waste of time and potentially ruined vacation turned into a spectacular 80โฌ half-day Italian adventure complete with cherry tomatoes along the trail, ancient ruins within reach and the picturesque coastal view of our (and your!) dreams. Oh how I love Italy.

La vita รจ bella. โจ๐๐พ๐ฎ๐น A reminder that amid the madness, there is beauty.
Yes, that Democratic Debate was madness, but there is hope yet. Itโs not too late. We know what weโre fighting for and why, we can reform our democracy and drive change, we are empowering a generation to lead the revolutions we need for a just, healthy, thriving and yes, beautiful world.

Italy is a dream. โจ๐ฎ๐น๐จ Greetings from our hilltop monastery-turned-hotel-and-spaโฆ

Everyone thinks Iโm Italian, I feel at home, I fit right in. ๐ฎ๐น๐๐ปโโ๏ธ So should I do 23andMe and figure out where the heck Iโm from?! Real question. Please discuss. Because it sufficiently freaks me outโฆ
Also, I love Italy. ๐๐พ

My momma has told me about the magical isle of Capri since I was a tiny little girlโฆ โจ๐ฎ๐น Itโs surreal to see it with my own eyes. A dream.

I knew weโd be lifelong friends the moment we met, albeit as complete strangers in the worst conditions and unlikeliest of places on earth. Just look at us now! I love you so much, am insanely proud of who youโre becoming and feel immensely grateful to know that you have my back (the photo is proof!) and I have yours, no matter what or where or when or why. Friendships that stand the test of time, of oceans, of languages, of cultures, of forces quite literally trying to destroy usโฆ those bonds are surely forever. ๐ซ๐๐พ๐ฎ๐น

The Amalfi Coast is a dream. If you have a list, add it. If you donโt, create one with this at the top! Youโll thank me.๐๐บ ๐ฎ๐น
And be sure Puerto Rico is on there too, complete with whatever Governor weโll have after Rossellรณ (just resigned) and Pierluisi (newly announced) and whomever is next and and andโฆ ๐ช๐ผโ๐พ๐ต๐ท
