One of our favorite spots in Venice at night is where Cannaregio and Castello come together, the quiet campo in front of Zanipolo. Zanipolo is the Venetian dialect slurring together “Santi Giovanni e Paolo.”

Castello di Soave
What a view. We know a great winery/agriturismo at which to stay almost walking distance from here. Join us!
Piemonte Fog
There are great views of the Alps when the fog clears out, but the foggy views have a romance all their own.

Venice *is* a Land of Culinary Treasures
Just some of the delights waiting for you in the Veneto. You’ll often read on sites like TripAdvisor folks complaining about the food in Venice, and invariably it really is just a matter of not knowing where to look for the good stuff and failure to get away from the tourist traps. Don’t miss out on the culinary experience of a lifetime when you’re there–let us help you get to “the real deal!”
Cannaregio Canal
We usually think of darkness, fog, rain, mist, night as things that conceal and foster mystery. That calculus is turned on its head in Venice, where night and weather reveal the mystery, the romance rather than obscure them.
Burano, a Tramonto
The vaporetto ride back from Burano to Fondmenta Nuove is always a bit wistful–Burano is the sort of place where you want to buy a small house and take up life as a fisherman just so you can wake up there. But sunsets like this make it a bit easier to accept!
From the San Giorgio Maggiore Campanile
Sunset shot with a fisheye on a 35mm prime lens. Fun time to be up there!
