If you are a regular reader of my blog you will know that at the moment me and Geoff are managing our friend’s Bed and Breakfast ‘Ai Chiosi’. One of the nicest things about this job is that we have the opportunity to meet a variety of interesting people from different parts of Italy. Here are a few examples of gli ospiti che abbiamo accolto <\/strong>(the guests we have welcomed) over the last couple of weeks:<\/font><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n
Un motociclista di Treviso che ci ha raccontato che \u00e8 un appassionato delle moto da pi\u00f9 di trent’anni. Ormai per\u00f2, tutti i suoi amici sono diventati pantofolai, per cui ha deciso di partire da solo alla scoperta di regioni italiane che non conosce molto bene, senza un itinerario preciso.<\/font><\/strong><\/td>\nA motor biker from Treviso who told us that he’s been mad about motorbikes for more than 30 years. By now<\/font>, however, <\/font>all his friends have become couch potatoes, so he has decided to set off on his own, without any particular plan, to discover regions of Italy that he doesn’t know very well.<\/font><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Un pellegrino che sta percorrendo a piedi parte della Via Francigena, la storica via di pellegrinaggio che parte da Canterbury, nel sud-est della Inghilterra per concludersi a Roma. Ci ha chiesto se conoscevamo un calzolaio a Pontremoli perch\u00e9 una delle cinghie del suo zaino da 20 Kg era rotta. Gli abbiamo indicato l’unico calzolaio di Pontremoli, avvisandolo per\u00f2 che sulla porta della sua bottega c’\u00e8 un cartello che dice: "non si accettano lavori urgenti". Il pellegrino \u00e8 stato fortunato per\u00f2, perch\u00e8 il calzolaio lo ha preso in simpatia e gli ha urgentemente riparato lo zaino.<\/font><\/strong><\/td>\nA pilgrim who is travelling by foot along a section of the Via Francigena, the historic pilgrim route that starts from Canterbury in the south east of England and finishes in Rome.
He asked us if we knew a cobbler in Pontremoli because one of the straps on his 20 kilo rucksack was broken. We directed him to the only cobbler in Pontremoli, warning him however, that on the door of his shop there is a sign saying ‘we don’t accept urgent work’.
The pilgrim was fortunate though, because the cobbler felt sorry for him and quickly repaired the rucksack.<\/font><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Una coppia Bolognese di mezza et\u00e0 che all’ultimo momento ha deciso di lasciare la citt\u00e0 per visitare un po’ l’Italia. Appena arrivati ci hanno chiesto dove potessero assaggiare il cibo tradizionale di Pontremoli. Gli italiani infatti, quando viaggiano per l’Italia, amano assaggiare la cucina locale, e invero abbiamo una grande variet\u00e0 di piatti regionali tradizionali. Cos\u00ec li abbiamo indirizzati all’Osteria ‘La Bietola’ che a Pontremoli \u00e8 famosa per la sua cucina tipica locale.<\/font><\/strong><\/td>\nA middle aged couple from Bologna who, at the last moment had decided to leave the city to explore Italy for a while.
As soon as they arrived they asked us where they could sample traditional Pontremolesi food.
In fact, when Italians travel around Italy they love to try the local cuisine, and we certainly do have a huge variety of traditional regional dishes.
Therefore we directed them to a small restaurant called ‘La Bietola’ that is famous here in Pontremoli for its typical local cuisine. <\/font><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
