Hi guys, Are you at all interested in a free Q and A session live on Zoom? If so I can set it up and you can ask your questions. Can you let me know?

Hi Guys! If you are planning on visiting Tuscany in Summer make a point of attending the Torrita International Blues Festival. In this video I interview the founder of the festival and we talk about his pilgrimage over to the US and how he ended up creating this amazing festival and what he has been doing ever since. He is a great speaker and is so enjoyable to watch, AND he stars in our movie "Chasing la Bella Vita" as well! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SLdibW6GP3k

Hi Guys! I found an amazing art and frame store close to Torrita. It is Arte e Cornice and I took them my beautiful Ebony Princess to frame. They did a spectacular job! She looks amazing! I love this painting! (Note the video did not upload. Still trying. Stay tuned!)

Hello All: If you are aware of the ongoing issues with Law 74 Tajani Decree I wanted to get thoughts on my comments below. From what I am seeing based on my research, the reason for this was solely due to abuse leading to overloading the consulates, noting that the majority of abuse were people getting the citizenship and not living in Italy thus not intending a connection, rather, using the privledge for the benefits it provdes. While I do agree with reasoning to correct abuse, my thought on the resolution are as follows: If this is so, then wouldn't it have been much more straight forward and simple to just add mandatory criteria, such as, 1) Mandatory living in Italy requirements with scheduled check in's; 2) Mandatory language test. This would stop the vast majority of the abuse, as people would now have to live in Italy and have knowledge of language, thus, stopping the abuse of getting the citizenship just for the benefits. However, it appears that Antonio Tajani's decree that was passed looks more like a convaluted, complicated legal issue that the courts in Italy are still dealing with, over a year later. On April 14, 2026 the Italian Supreme Court will be hearing Law 74 relating to retroactivity and, the minor issue (I think). It actually now limits to two generations (parent and grandparent), so, at 11:55 pm on May 22, 2025 a person was an Italian Citizen via birthright; then 6 minutes later on May 23, 2025, they were not. I keep trying to research to find out more information on why it was done this way. Thoughts? Comments? Thank you.
