News from Italy is one of my very favorite blogs. Linda makes Italy come alive for the reader. She is a fantastic writer and photographer, and the Italian Tourist Board should compensate Linda for her lovely posts about beautiful living in Italy.

I think News From Italy is a truly fantastic blog, which at times has kept me in touch with life in Italy. Lindy loves Italy with passion and enjoys every day she spends in my Country. She has made a lovely home in Lazio and loves to share her experiences. As an Italian, I feel so happy, through this blog, to realize that you don't have to have been born in Italy, to love this beautiful, warm, sunny Country, my Country! Lindy loves Italy and this love is almost tangible, through the many posts, photos, small video clips and much more. I have often thanked Lindy for loving Italy,as much as shedoes. I find Lindy's blog almost moving at times... and, once more with my passionate, full of love Italian heart I would like to THANK Lindy for having adopted Italy as her country. BUONA FORTUNA NEWS FROM ITALY! ANNA RIZZO

I want to go to Italy SO bad, and that's one of the reasons I searched for and found "News from Italy." LindyLou does a great job of capturing the essence of the country and I jump over to her blog as soon as I see a new post in my reader. Definitely one of my favorite blogs!

I love Linda's blog. :-) Her stories and photos of everyday life make for great reading and inspiration. Hers isn't a glossy, impossible world we can't hope to recreate. It is real and honest and I enjoy it so much. :-)

It was love at first sight when I read 'News from Italy' for the first time. Simply beautiful pictures and exquisite story to it! And the way Lindy writes her post, it makes me not only want to continue reading but yearn for more. I have always been fascinated with Italy but could not visit her just yet. Lindy being an expat there managed to 'quench my thirst' of wanting to know more of Italy, the Italian way. And now being accustomed to Italy, she succeed, I would say in featuring the Italian way of life just like any of her native would :) Well done Lindy!

I have been following News from Italy for several years now. The blog has blossomed from its simple and humble beginnings into a full fledged cultural and photographical blog. The topics covered demonstrate all facets of life in Italy from festivals, to harvests, to fashion, to food and every day life. Well worth subscribing to!

As an Italian-American I am always on the lookout for those expats who are living my dream! That drew me to Linda's News from Italy and I have been a faithful follower for a number of years. She makes Italy approachable to all of us who dream to be there!

"News from Italy" is one super interesting blog! Lindy presents us with beautiful pictures all year around, she gives us detailed information of events in town, she express her thoughts and feelings about everyday life in that region and beyond. It feels like I'm there living in her town and walking her backyard. I just love her writing and on top of that she's a sweet person with a light soul and very easy to interact with. Yes, her blog deserves an award!

I am Dutch, living in the Netherlands and I just love to read the blogs from News from Italy not just because of the great way of writing and the gorgeous photos but also because they make me feel so close to the the area I love so much, ''La Tuscia Viterbese'' in Upper-Lazio....

An fantastic blog that I read all of the time. Linda provides captivating articles about Italian life and culture, often accompanying those articles with her own superb photos. Linda enjoys hearing comments from others and her friendly responses make reading the blog even more enjoyable. This blog is precisely what an epats in Italy blog should be, and is certainly deserving of the award.

Linda writes well about all the good things, and some of bad things, about living in Italy, particularly her beloved Lazio. The features are always interesting, well-presented, and written with enthusiasm. She manages, very successfully, to get people to engage in real Italian culture and events.

I have been following Linda's Blog for a long time now, and I always thoroughly enjoy her posts. Her photos are always stunning and, as I adore the country of Italy, I love to read about all the Festivals that take place there, which Linda describes beautifully. Linda would be a well deserved winner of this Award.

I have been following Linda's blog for quite a while and love to know about her life in Lazio, Italy. I have never been to Italy and it always make me want to go, hopefully this year or next.
