The Homecoming · Naples → Avellino → Your family's town

A JOURNEY TO MAKE YOUR OWN

The Homecoming

Begin in the city, end in the town your family came from — the day the whole trip is built around.

  1. 01
    Naples

    Arrive easy and settle in, with espresso and pizza the way locals do it.

  2. 02
    Avellino

    Base among the hills of Irpinia, close to the villages families left a century ago.

  3. 03
    Your family's town

    The day: a guide-interpreter, lunch with a local family, and doors opened at the comune and church.
