CNN —Kacie Rose Burns walked into the Florence jazz bar, alone. “That place is, let’s say, unconventional for Florence,” Dario tells CNN Travel. And before long, Dario was planning a trip to visit New York. Then, Kacie and Dario packed up their life in New York and got ready to move across the Atlantic. While her social media presence was getting bigger, for the first few months in Florence, Kacie and Dario’s IRL world remained small.

London CNN —It opened just over a year ago, but a luxurious 24-key Italian property has already been named the best hotel in the world. Passalacqua, which overlooks Lake Como, beat off stiff competition to receive the top spot on the first-ever edition of the World’s 50 Best Hotels list, which was announced at an awards ceremony in the UK on Tuesday night. The highly-anticipated list honored 50 hotels from 35 destinations across the world. “After seeing the devastating impact of Covid-19 on the hospitality industry, it’s been especially fulfilling to see so many hoteliers from around the world gather in London to celebrate each other’s achievements under one roof for the first-ever awards ceremony of The World’s 50 Best Hotels,” Tim Brooke-Webb, managing director for the World’s 50 Best Hotels, said in a statement.

I followed the river toward the Uffizi Gallery where I stopped, enchanted by the scene below. It’s “a search for the delectable, delicious, almost gustatory delights of the moment,” as they put it. Other times, an object or architectural detail that piques your interest — a gate, a gargoyle — provides a portal to another time. Stories of vanished ages can be triggered by a single stone, then explored back home through books and websites. Being in a big city among so many strangers can be at turns exhilarating and disturbing.

The logo of Monte dei Paschi di Siena bank is seen in a bank entrance in Rome, Italy, August 16, 2018. REUTERS/Max Rossi/File PhotoFLORENCE, Italy, Oct 11 (Reuters) - Monte dei Paschi di Siena (BMPS.MI) is set to get around 30 million euros ($29 million) for its new share issue from local banking foundations, including the Tuscan bank's former top shareholder, a source with knowledge of the matter said. In some cases, including that of the Fondazione Monte dei Paschi di Siena, they have seen their fortunes wiped out by the demise of the banks they owned. A fourth banking foundation, Cassa di Risparmio di Pistoia e Pescia (CariPistoia), has not yet taken a decision on a possible 3 million euro contribution, the source added. The chairman of CariPistoia had told Reuters the foundation was not interested in investing in Monte dei Paschi.
