RESEARCH TRIP
Italian Research Trip! Hello everyone, I'm returning to Italy to visit a couple new regions and complete interviews for Volume 2 of "Italy's Witches and Medicine Women"!  In the meanwhile I'm completing "Italian Magic: Secret Lives of Women" an illustrated encyclopedia-type collection of domestic Mother Magic traditions from agricultural Italian communities all over Italy and her islands. I've been translating interviews from last year, compiling research and have dedicated my past few years solely to taking and sharing these journeys. If you can donate a little or a lot, every bit of help from you goes to my extensive train travels across Italy, meet ups in far-reaching villages, translations from dialects if need be, and all the other expenses it takes to gather the info, put it into book format, and publish! I have some interesting rewards set up for you if you choose to donate!

there are:
AMULET REWARDS,  
HERBS REWARDS 
SOUVENIR PACKAGES 
STONE EXCHANGE PRAYER PACKAGES
and ART PRINTS below:

Your donations go to: the many trains and buses I have to take in criss-cross treks,  small audio recording device, video memory cards, translator ear buds where I have to go remotely alone without a guide, bnbs.

I'm also open to other combo options, please send a request my way:
