About Mr.Brightside´s Italian Adventures ~

After the success of his first humorous travel memoir, The Adventures of Mr. Brightside, in which he traveled around the world exploring each country he visited on three different budget levels, Ryan Jacobson has now decided to tackle the country of Italy.

Ryan travels to all of the Italy's twenty unique regions and splits his time in each by spending half his time on a low budget and half on a luxury budget before moving on to the next.

Throughout his adventure Ryan experiences everything from living with nuns at the Vatican and re-tracing the potentially deadly path of St. Francis of Assisi, to staying overnight inside a wine barrel and drinking unlimited wine with a local mayor in Piedmont, and ending up at a world premiere red carpet event at the Venice International Film Festival.

Through the use of his humorous storytelling, Ryan shares what makes each of the regions so special and worthy of visiting.

Mr. Brightside's Italian Adventures will make you want to book that long awaited trip to Italy and start brushing up on your Italian for Beginners.

So grab a cappuccino, bootle of Chianti or a jug of Aperol spritz, and get ready to learn about each of Italy's twenty regions and how one empty-headed American man conquered them all.
