Orvieto Who?

I'm hosting this week's blog on my website. In it I cover some aspects of Orvieto, a town I'd never heard of before I went to teach there.

I've been blessed to have the chance to work there!

I'll be teaching classes in Creative Non-Fiction, Film and Literature, and Shakespeare's Italian plays.
