When a friend told us about Passports with Purpose and asked if we wanted to join forces to help out, we thought it was a great idea and offered a few nights at our Pisa vacation rental apartment, Behind the Tower, as a prize. Have you donated yet? There are some fabulous prizes!

I don’t have any deeply moving story to tell to honor America on the 10th anniversary of 9/11. But it’s with great affection for all the American friends and guests we have had the pleasure of meeting over these 10 years that I decided to write this post.
