Hi everyone,
I’ve recently entered one of my favorite photos that I took in 2012 of Valdobbiadine into a contest.
A company called quadro citta organized the contest and are looking for the best photo that represents Valdobbiadine in Treviso, Veneto, Italy.
In order to win, you simply need to have the most likes on your photo.
I don’t usually do this BUT I would LOVE to win…
So, I am asking if you guys would please help me out and VOTE and also share!!!
I think I am most definetly the under dog in this competition.
If you could kindly click on this link and “like” my photo, I would greatly appreciate it.
Valdobbiadine is where the worlds best sparkling white wine comes from!! Prosecco!!
Thank you so much

An adventure in Padova
We had an appointment at the University of Padova in the late afternoon, so we were able to spend an hour or so exploring downtown Padova. Padova is not far from Treviso ~ about a 40 minute car ride on the autostrada or in English “highway”.
A few things Padova is known for :
Padova is home to Prato della Valle, which is the largest square in Italy and one of the largest in all of Europe.
Padova claims to be the oldest city in Northern Italy.
It was founded in 1183 BC
It hosts the renowned University of Padova which is over 800 years old.
