I love the Sabina region and agree it's under-appreciated.
Do you know the area around Rieti well? I've recently "discovered" the Cola di Tora area and can't understand why it isn't better known. It doesn't have much history by Italian standards (the lake is man-made and dates only to the 1930s). But it's stunning, relatively inexpensive, easy to get to, and the food is delicious. If you know the area I'd love to hear to hear another opinion.
Love this! Your photos are divine. My special place in Italy is less than an hour north of here, where Lazio meets Umbria. Last year we bought a little stone house in the centre of a gorgeous Medieval town called Narni. My goal is to renovate the cellar and turn it into a magical little bookshop.

Beautiful photos and enticing narrative. Reading this inspires me to go back to Italy. Thanks for posting a great article.
