Your favorite sister duo learns about an underrated and less traveled region of Italy: Puglia (Apulia). In the heel of the boot and on the coast of the Adriatic sea, Puglia features beautiful beaches, mountains, and farmlands for the perfect Italian escape. Venture among the quaint, local towns which each offer their own unique charm. Visit a masseria to see how traditional olive oil is made or take a pasta making class and try traditional orecchiette. In this episode we also compare Puglia to Italy’s more well known Amalfi Coast, and discuss why Puglia is worth visiting instead.
