It was November 2023 when we first heard from Norman.
Actually, it wasn’t even an email—it was a WhatsApp message.

He was inquiring about our Keymaster tour, known as Good Morning Vatican. We described the experience as best we could, knowing it to be one of the most exclusive and breathtaking opportunities one can have. Not long after, Norman shared something even more special: he was planning to propose to his then-girlfriend, Cheryll.

We’ve organized many proposals over the years, but each one is unique, a new story, new emotions, new energy, new traditions. And this one was no different.
When someone entrusts us with such an intimate moment, we approach it with a mix of precision and heart. Every detail, every nuance matters.

We Found the Treasure of Montecristo
Starting to describe this experience is challenging—you don’t quite know where to begin. So, let’s start from the beginning: how did we manage to reach this “forbidden island” that’s almost impossible to visit?
As always, what is forbidden or rare ignites curiosity. So, we searched—and we found a way. The path isn’t particularly hard, but the process certainly is. Our team spans Generation X, Millennials, and Gen Z, so let’s just say getting the Montecristo permit is like securing Coldplay tickets. The Parco Nazionale Arcipelago Toscano releases only 1,000 spots a year, and four of us were lucky enough to grab tickets for June 13th, 2025.

Are you a music lover, perhaps a jazz fan, and you happen to be in Sicily this June?
There’s a special event you won’t want to miss!
Each June, Palermo becomes the stage for one of the most vibrant musical happenings in
the country: the Sicilia Jazz Festival. A unique event that brings together renowned
orchestras, international soloists, and the unmistakable energy of the Sicilian capital.
Palermo is a city that has a rhythm all its own: with its warm breeze, lovely food and long
evenings, it pulses with life all year long. But in June, Palermo turns into an open-air
concert hall and wraps music lovers in such a magnetic atmosphere.

Ever heard of a Halloween taking place in May? Ancient Romans had one. It was called
Lemuria, and instead of costumes and candy, it involved midnight rituals, spooky chants
and black beans thrown over the shoulder to scare off ghosts. Strange? Definitely. But also
fascinating, and very Roman.

Discover why Pope Francis selected the Basilica of Santa Maria Maggiore over St. Peter's for his final resting place. A deeply personal decision that breaks tradition.

After the pope's death or resignation, the Catholic Church has a long and fascinating
tradition of selecting a new pope. This process, called the “conclave”, is filled with
spiritual importance, history, and secrecy. But how does it actually work? Let's see what
happens inside the Vatican when the time comes to select a new pope.
