Personal Legends of Piemonte

You're invited into the world of 12 Italians. Living in Piemonte for 7 years felt like a pilgrimage, not one in search of a blessing or penance, instead, life lessons were learned. The kind that create intimate stories used to introduce each interview to you. How work, family, tradition and campanilismo continue to shape these people's lives. Nestled up against the Italian, Swiss and French Alps, the Piemontesi are formed by the mountains. They're tough and productive, and they're also worth reading about. They are so attached to their land they make it appear magical. Their lives may seem simple, some may read like a a fairy tale - yet this is their reality. I had to sail across Atlantic aboard a sailboat and live in several countries before finding my bliss; the legends didn't have to move a mile to fulfil their own destiny. Welcome to Piemonte; the secret that needs to be told.
