‘I first visited Capri in 2002, on my honeymoon. My husband and I went late in the summer and we loved everything about it.

Positano, Italy, is a lot like the "Kingsman" and "Rocketman" star Taron Egerton. "Oh, that guy!" They're not household names (yet), but I'd wager pretty much anyone would recognize them in a photo. That's because, over the past few years, Positano has become a trendy spot for budding social-media influencers to visit. It has even welcomed celebrit...

An Italian politician wants Italian Americans to help him raise the funds to build a new village of Poggioreale, which was virtually destroyed by an earthquake a half-century ago.
