Description
Ian Ross's Beached in Calabria is a humorous and charming travelogue about his experiences living in southern Italy. After inheriting a small sum, he sets out to find a home for his large family, eventually settling on a beachside property in the province of Reggio Calabria. The author recounts his struggles with the local culture, including incomprehensible rules and regulations, family systems, and linguistic conundrums. Despite the challenges, Ross forms friendships along the way and finds himself immersed in the region's unique customs and traditions. This book offers a lighthearted and entertaining account of one man's adventures in southern Italy, where the food and sunshine make for a perfect setting to a triumphant escapade.
