Hello, fellow Venice enthusiasts!

As someone who has been intricately woven into the fabric of Venice, both through my lens and my personal experiences, I've always felt a deep connection to this city of canals and historic allure. Venice, with its winding waterways and ancient stones, tells a story that goes beyond the grandeur of Piazza San Marco or the romantic gondola rides. It's a living, breathing entity, with secrets tucked away in its narrow alleys and quiet corners.

Over the years, I've had the privilege of capturing the essence of Venice through my photography, a journey that has allowed me to delve deeper into the city's heart. However, I realized that the true spirit of Venice is not just in its picturesque landscapes but in the vibrant community and the shared experiences of those enchanted by its charm.

This realization led to :

The birth of our Facebook group: "Discover the Real Venice".
For about two years, I also had a Flipboard Magazine with the very same name.

A Community of Like-Minded Enthusiasts

The primary goal behind creating this group is to foster a community where Venice enthusiasts can come together to share, explore, and celebrate the lesser-known aspects of the city. It's a space where you can share that quaint café you stumbled upon, the artisan shop that caught your eye, or the hidden courtyard that tells a story from centuries past.

A Portal to the Authentic Venice

In this group, we aim to peel back the layers of commercial tourism to reveal the authentic Venice that lies beneath. A Venice where tradition meets modernity, where every stone has a tale to tell, and where the local culture is rich and vibrant. Through collective experiences and stories, we hope to paint a picture of Venice that is as diverse and multifaceted as the city itself.

Engaging Conversations and Lasting Connections

Beyond just sharing experiences, the group serves as a platform for engaging discussions and forming connections with fellow Venice lovers. Whether you're planning your first trip or are a seasoned visitor, the group offers a wealth of information and insights that can help you see Venice through a fresh lens.

Join Us on This Journey

As we embark on this exciting journey, I invite you to join us in this vibrant community. Your insights, experiences, and photographs can help others discover the Venice that has captivated hearts for centuries. Together, we can forge a community that celebrates Venice in all its authentic glory.

I look forward to welcoming you to our group and to the many enriching conversations that lie ahead.
