nature. umbria is nature. and that s why he s so representative of umbria. i could stand here all day. but it seems matteo s mind has wandered. which is your favorite food? it s hard to say. i do like salami. in italy, it s never long until someone talks about food, but here in umbria, everything comes back to pork. you could say it s like a religion. not with its roots in the saints of assisi but out here in the forest primeval. today is hunt day, and i ve been invited to tag along by claudia fe ferraciata.
