Our renovation project and my blog are mentioned today in New York Times.com in the Real Estate - Great Homes and Destination Section along with other expatriate blogger.
The article "Expatriate Bloggers Chronicle Details of Home Renovations" can also be found in today's print edition of the International Herald Tribune (Friday, May 4, 2012).
It is very true that this blog helped me to communicate with readers and other blogger on interior design, and to find inspiration online. Thanks for all your support !
My blog even became a "communication tool" to discuss our renovation project online with Angelo, my father in law. While he was most of the time on the construction site, we were, most of the time, thousand of miles away. Editors always cut some parts, so I am adding this here.
Since the Skype interview for this story was over a year ago, I am really excited to finally hold in hands the printed story in today's International Herald Tribune, and - wow! - how amazing to have a back link from the New York Times!
Welcome to all new readers of New York Times and IHT who are visiting this blog today!
And thanks for the mention of Palazzo Pizzo.
Wow! Many Congrats Suzie! A job well done!
ReplyDeleteNYT is crowning the project! Thanks for your wishes. See you ;-)
DeleteHello Suzie:
ReplyDeleteHow very splendid to have a mention in the New York Times on line! Interaction between bloggers can be, or so we think, always so very helpful and certainly on our own blog we have very much enjoyed the dialogue which we have established with our many Followers over the past year.
Thanks for visiting on this special day :-)
DeleteWell just fantastic to meet you this way Suzie, and we are kindred spirits I see from your photos. ciao Lisa

Ciao Bella, da vero?! Grazie! You are part of it!
DeleteThanks for letting me know about the article Suzie. I've looked at it online but don't see any mention of my blog. Is the print version different to the online version? It's a lovely article all the same and congratulations on the mention of Palazzo Pizzo. Our home renovation has been held up for various reasons but work finally started this month so I'll have plenty to update on my blog soon.
ReplyDeleteYour blog is mentioned in the print version of IHT along with some others. I scanned it and will post it later today to share. Looking forward to read updates of your home in Umbria.
DeleteWOW!!! CONGRATulations! NYT that is big time!!!
