Chieti

Not with Veste in particular, no.

My family comes from Chieti, which is south of Veste.

Okay.

But still, you're in the neighborhood.

But right now we're sort of halfway up the peninsula.

The name of the place is Chieti.

And there is a dramatic landscape from the sea all the way up to 4,790 feet and a castle there.

Lorenzo, a very good evening to you.

Thank you very much.

Before we go to Chieti, we need to pause on the climate because the news here is that Europe has been baking for weeks.

And when we last spoke, you were in Switzerland and there was rationing of water for the valleys of Switzerland.

So before we come back to the north of Italy, is there any relief for the Swiss? Has it rained yet? Is there any snow in the Alps anywhere? Good evening to you.

Yeah, my...

So my grandfather was from Lanciano, and my mo- or my grandmother's from Chieti.

Okay.

So our, we're- our little village is, uh, Gamberale.

Yeah.

And that's in the province of Chieti.

We're, we're pretty close to where your, your, uh, ancestors are from as well.

That is incredible.
