Comment from Philippa Burne
Italy is one of those lucky countries that has it all – art, architecture and history, food, fashion and urban life, beaches, rolling hills and spectacular mountains. It’s these mountains, the Dolomites, that I’m becoming increasingly entranced by. Traveling to Italy from pretty much anywhere overland, you become aware of the mountains that ring the northern part of the country, where it borders Switzerland and Austria.
