Vito Roppo from "Vitos Italian Tours"
On Sunday Jul. 22nd, 2008, Vito Roppo was our guest again via phone, and we speak about his tour service to Italy.
Vito told us that his family emigrated from the Puglia region of Italy in the early 1950's.
"As a child, I took my Italian roots for granted. There were even times that I was shy about being Italian-American left me feeling not "American" enough in comparison to the others. But as I grew older I began to look at my Italian roots in an entirely different way. I began to rediscover and even celebrate my connection with Italian culture. Frequent visits to Italy left me wondering, why my family had even left, since the geography, cuisine and history of Italy had so much to offer.
The first time Vito saw Italy, the first impression he had was how physically beautiful land was. Vito's family had never mentioned how mountainous Italy is. There are hills and mountains virtually everywhere -often times stretching right up to the sea.
He was really enchanted by the physical beauty of the place, as much was impressed and sometime overwhelmed by the vast amount of art to be discovered there.
Vito spent longer and longer amounts of time in Italy, from several month to sojourns lasting years.
He attended university there, first at Genova and then at Bologna. He felt a distinct calling to be there, and he was fortunate enough to be able to arrange his life to respond to that inner feeling.
When I was approached by the travel professional about opening a tour operator business in Italy, at first He was thrilled at the prospect, and then he had second thoughts:
What if Italy would turn into "work? What if the joy I feel there would slowly erode away into banality of operating a business?
Happily that has been the case. In fact the opposite it is true. Watching people experience Italy for the first time is very fulfilling for me, and of course an absolute thrill for them. It's now my goal to facilitate for her the same joy I felt the first time I visited Italy."
For more info call Vito at 239-9054 area code (608) or visit Vito web site at(www.vitositaly.com)
Vito has said once "I am proud of my heritage, and I should remain worthy of it."
