Two years ago, I went to the Monta Food and Wine Festival in Italy. Monta is a town that is located in northwest Italy. I had never been to Italy before, but one of my friends had been there, and she told me that the Monta Food and Wine Festival was not something I could miss.

Because we weren’t staying in Monta, we got a rental car to get from where we were staying to the city of Monta. Once we arrived in Monta, there were several hundred people that were starting to gather. After figuring out what we were supposed to do, we got a basket, and began walking along with the rest of the group. The group was quite enthusiastic, and it didn’t take long for their energy to rub off on us. We made our first stop (where we got wine and bruschetta), and for the next couple of hours, we continued to walk with the group and stop quite regularly for amazingly good food and wonderful wine.

The day was great, and as we were driving back to our hotel in the rental car, we had a lot of laughs recalling many of the fun events that happened throughout the day.
