When you follow your heart, amazing things can happen. When Giacomino Nicolazzo followed his, he found himself in Italy, tracing his roots in Emilia-Romagna, the birthplace of his ancestors. There, he not only found some of his relatives and stood on the farm his grandfather was raised on; he, by chance encounter, met the love of his life, the woman who would become his wife.
A year after that trip, Giacomino moved to Italy for good, bought a small farm in the countryside outside Bologna and now lives a simple, happy life writing a ten-book series titled "Terra d’Amore. An Italian Story,” novels drawn from his family’s history in Italy, as well as a series of cookbooks featuring authentic regional recipes from all 20 regions of Italy.
Let’s hear more from Giacomino himself.
