ON OUR WAY TO Italy 2017! We are walking the Via Frangicena. It starts in England and goes to Rome, but we will only be walking a part of it. We loved walking the Camino de Santiago de Compostela last year and as we LOVE Italian food, what better way to be in Italy than walking so we can eat all the amazing food there. In Asia in 2015 we filmed our fourth low budget movie during the trip, and would loved meeting and staying with people interested in filmmaking and acting (and made some great friends) Our latest movie is called "Asian Treasure" and is a drama/comedy about a man traveling in Asia to fulfill his mothers dying request. We filmed in the USA, Japan, Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand and Cambodia. We both love to travel and meet new people--and dogs. We LOVE dogs! We like cats too, but Les is allergic, so we CANNOT stay in a house with cats. NO CATS please, sorry!
