Now Italians in Latin America have two more eyes on the Bel Paese. They are those of Marco Paese, a nice Calabrian who will take us around Italy - with "Conociendoitalia.com”- to discover its extraordinary beauties. Which often make you really speechless.
Conociendo Italy and the Latin America of italiani.it
Thanks to this "marriage of love", Italians around the world and Hispanic speakers who are passionate about Italy will be able to see it, hear it, and almost smell it, touch it and taste it. through the social networks of all "it" (itBogota.it. enAsuncion.it, itMexico.it, itMisiones.it, itGuatemala.it, etc, etc ...) of Latin America. It will seem like walking through the streets of Venice or in the living room of Florence, feeling at Christmas among the trulli of Alberobello as in a land of fairies, discovering the little known but fascinating Basilicata ... And so on. North, Center, South, including the islands! A tourism really within everyone's reach!
Thanks to this new partnership, Marco's intriguing “walks” will come in Argentina, in Colombia, Mexico, Guatemala, Uruguay, Chile, Paraguay ... but also in Brazil, Venezuela, Uruguay, Peru, Ecuador, Bolivia ... So many people will be able to relive the emotions unique of their travels in the most beautiful country in the world (sorry for the false modesty), or get to know him for the first time “Up close”, in the company of a nice, smiling and passionate Italian like Marco. That is together with Conociendoitalia.com.
Direct and walking tours
We could finally go back to being tourists! Virtual, of course ... but in what places and with what guide! AND with direct and walking tours, it's like really being there!
So beware of the fan pages and instagram of the Latin American sites of italiani.it! Because there will be live via Facebook live! Certainly also the Italians and all the friends of us who don't speak Spanish will enjoy them! And maybe they will learn some of the beautiful language of Cervantes 😉
Conociendo Italia and his followers
If you want to know more, we tell you that Conociendoitalia.com was born in 2009, and since then Marco has been traveling around Italy sharing the passion for his country ”, as ours writes Mirtha Aldunce on itChile.it. “The idea was born together with my wife, above all to make Italy known to friends, to those who came to visit us.
Why not make a blog, a Facebook fanpage, a YouTube channel? In this way we could inform the whole world about Italy ”. Given the great interest, 5 years of "Italy live" have now passed! For Marco all this is very gratifying, because more and more friends and friends are following him and interacting with him through the comments. "All kind people, who talk about the beautiful things of Italy and who greatly appreciate what they see", Marco recognizes.
But ... a question arises spontaneously ...
And then, Conociendoitalia.com is not just this. Thanks to the complicity of his wife and son, Marco live cooking or show the production of wines and cheeses. It is that during the lockdown, people needed life, they felt the need for Italy ... and asked Marco to continue doing his broadcasts, which are now more and more famous.
But ... okay! We finally answer the question that hangs in the air, and reveal why a Calabrian makes videos in Spanish. The main reason is that its wife is Venezuelan, and that speaking Spanish allows them to reach many second, third or fourth generation Italians and many "pro-Italians" who do not speak our language. But Marco speaks also in English, as his followers are growing from the USA, Australia and Canada, and beyond.
To know (a little) more
“Behind the scenes”, Marco hto a small dairy company and exports food products - our Mirtha tells us -. But it is the blog that takes up most of its time, and also his wife Teresita he works there, organizing events and tours and moving social media.
How does it feel to have so many fans and followers? “It gives me a lot of joy, because it means that people like what we do, and this is what makes me happy ". Do you think that Conociendoitalia.com is even landed on TV… in Japan! “The Japanese are super in love with Italy! This is one of the good things about what we are doing ”, comments Marco in dialogue with Mirtha.
Ready to go, then! AND you don't even need to pack your bags and renew your passport! Just have desire of Italy, its beauties, its excellence, its flavors, its aromas and its rich and multiform culture.
