💫Imagine celebrating the New Year not to the sound of fireworks, but to applause in a street square. Not in a fur hat, but in an elegant coat, holding a glass of sparkling prosecco.

This is Italy, where celebration is woven into the very fabric of life, and the word "love" here applies not only to couples but also to family, friends, food, and life itself - "la dolce vita."

🇮🇹The Italian New Year is a hymn to communication and hope. The main ritual isn't the chiming of the clock, but the eating of lentils with "kotechino" or "zoleone" after midnight. Each round lentil symbolizes a coin, attracting prosperity and good luck for the year ahead. And the next day begins not with aspirin, but with a fragrant pork trotter—zampone-simmering slowly on the stove, filling the house with the scent of prosperity.

🎄🌟But the most important thing is the atmosphere. Heartfelt hugs and "Buon Anno!" wishes that sound so fervent, as if fate depended on them. Fireworks reflected in the dark waters of the Venetian canals or the waves of the Tyrrhenian Sea. And, of course, red lingerie worn at midnight-for good luck and love.

🙏💖What will New Year's be like, Italian style? Generous as a serving of pasta, boisterous as a family at the table, and passionate as a kiss in the square while the bells chime. This is a holiday that reminds us that for the year to be a success, we must greet it with an open heart, faith in the best, and love for everything around us. That's the Italian secret.
Buon Anno Nuovo! Buon Anno Nuovo! Buon Anno Nuovo!
