@EricaSc41146330 @EmilyDWarfield Lower maintenance than dog or cat but there is a not-insignificant learning curve. They require special lighting, large tank etc. But if you do your research properly (reptile ppl are always happy to help!) theyre pretty easy once you learn. Mine cuddle, run around, climb stuff

For our next issue, @dreamofitaly is looking to profile people who've made their Italian dream come true. Artisans, bakers, food/wine, etc. either #expats in #Italy or in US who learned a craft in Italy. Do you know anyone like this? (No travel writers/travel industry pls)

Please, please, please do not let your friends and family piece together an account of what happened today from posts or conspiracies on social media. Send them our story — it’s the joint work of dozens of reporters who were on the ground.
