The First Program in Italian
And when iFIT decided to introduce Italian among its foreign languages (the firm is American, so most programs are in English), they called…me! I was so surprised, when I saw their first emails, that I thought it could actually be a prank by some friends of mine. But no, it’s really happening, and I am shooting in France, with a crew of 14 people, for the whole month, in order to get the program ready.
Here are some impressions of the first locations where you’ll be able to run with me. More to come!
Under this arch there are oysters that used to be shipped at night to Versailles, so Marie Antoinette could eat them first thing in the morning. What a beautiful silhouette!
Hornfleur, the village mirrored on the water, was painted many times by Claude Monet and other artists, starting what later became impressionism. Another stunning location for our run
In front of the French flags, in Saint Valery-sur-Somme
Mers les Bains is the only village in France with coloured houses, influenced by English and Flemish architecture
Seals in France? Yes, resting, during the low tide, in Berck
A beach in the Calais area – while running, I found some bullets from the Second World War
A very emotional moment on the beach codenamed “Gold”. Here is where D-Day happened, 6 June 1944
The Étretat cliffs reach 134 mt. of height – and from there one can sometimes see England
