You will miss much of Italy's fascinating, little-known, hidden treasures unless you enrich your trip with the experience of Joe Reina, the son of Sicilian immigrants, and his encounters with Italy's hidden delights during his decades of business and pleasure trips. Most guidebooks and guides who lead tours provide you bare-bones historical facts, but they seldom can regale their tourists with insider's awareness of stories and events. Reina's travel-earned familiarity with landmarks and the artists who created them offers an insider's grasp of the famous personalities who built and artistically adorned "the glory that was Rome." In Milan, The Last Supper, which took DaVinci three years to paint, is hung with Donato's Crucifixion, initially painted in a church destroyed (except for one wall) by Allied bombers in World War II. The Last Supper is on your right as you enter, and Crucifixion is on your left. In Rome's Piazza Campo de' Fiori, sits Ristorante da Pancrazio, a waiter will lead you down a cellar to the remains of how the entire piazza was built atop the ruins of what was once General Pompey's theater, which could seat forty thousand people.In Rome's Piazza Navona, the seventeenth-century Pope engaged three leading sculptors to create the fountains, the first designed by Bernini, leading sculpture of his era. Bernini became incensed when Borromini was commissioned to build a church directly across from his fountain. In retribution, Bernini had his largest statue of a man lying on his side in the fountain; his hand outstretched directly at Borromini's church. Once both were constructed, Bernini sent his rival this message: "My statue will catch your church when it falls."Reina's historical information of tourist sites to visit and the best restaurants and hotels that fit any budget is invaluable.

This is a collection of true and mostly humorous, but also sometimes jaw dropping, tales written by industry pros about what happens behind the scenes during the production of meetings and events. Consider it Meeting Planning 101.

Author Alexander Flint has taken over a dozen luxury cruises, and based on those experiences, particularly a 109-day around-the-world cruise, he has written a harrowing report called Dark Ship. During that long cruise, Flint’s ship spent several days in Chinese ports. Months later, COVID-19 was a pandemic. Was the sickness that ran rampant through Flint’s ship, and that he fell ill to three times, this coronavirus? Throughout Dark Ship, Flint explores cruise lines’ often substandard level of care; for example, the book’s first chapter, "The Floating Petri Dish," details dangerous cleaning practices Flint witnessed directly. With Dark Ship, Flint hopes to educate and warn future cruise passengers and encourage cruise management to improve their business practices.

This isn't an ordinary working-on-a-cruise-ship story. When she took the job as a Social host on a cruise ship, Pip Coleman had no idea that it would lead to discovering her authentic self and opening her up to a new life path. The first three years of my cruise ship life were intense and full of crazy incidents - including sex, drugs, ships breaking down, Mexican tattoos, and lots more. During the second three years of my cruise ship life, I decided to bring the soul back. Pip began to teach meditation and self-development classes onboard; met some incredible, soulful, spiritual people, and learned some wonderful lessons. She also deepened her own journey of spiritual development, connected with departed loved ones, tapped into the wisdom of Rhonda Byrne's 'The Secret', and began manifesting a whole new life. I was drowning in the triviality of my job until I taught my first Wellness class … I gave myself the gift of fulfillment. In writing Finding my Soul at Sea, Pip discovered the purpose of her life and her business. She now runs her own business as a Reiki Master, Bowen Therapist, Public speaker, Psychic Development, and Meditation teacher. I'm here to teach people to accept themselves as equally Divine, unique souls. By accepting myself fully, I can model and support self-acceptance for others.
