This was such a fun session. Both presenters were great and did a super job of interacting and speaking during the event. I can't wait to visit the area!
It was such an interesting presentation. You do not need to be a car aficionado to enjoy this course. The presenters, Francine Segan and Dr Frank Celenza did an excellent job providing information about the region through cars and food. I learned so many interesting facts about both. It is an area I am looking forward to visiting, even if I wasn’t, I would still highly recommend this course.
This was a really interesting conversation. I love it when I can appreciate someone else's love for something I didn't think I'd be too interested in (namely the cars). I am going to Modena in a few weeks and now will definitely visit at least one of the car museums.
This course was just so much fun! If you love fast, beautiful cars, you can't miss it. The food was an added highlight of such a beautiful region. Both instructors were fabulous!
The energy, enthusiasm and sheer delight in the subject matter was fabulous, for both speakers. Can not wait for when I can travel to Modena!
