Writer: Helena Bergström

Updated: August 2026 | Giazza is a small mountain village in northern Italy that we had the chance to visit.

Leif and Patrizia live in a small village just outside Verona in Italy, but Leif also has a house in the mountain village of Giazza. We went there the day before yesterday on winding roads through the mountains in northern Italy.
