Calabria Stinks: Arrest on the Autostrada

Wednesday April 18, 2007
Stopped by the police and cited for not having a patente internazionale, Danielle and her friends are arrested and taken to the station. But they manage to avoid time in a Calabrian jail because they stink up the joint. The next installment in Italian America.

For those not familiar with the author, she's our guest writer who travelled extensively in Southern Italy where she hitchhiked, haggled, warded off a malocchio, and ate too many sfogliatelle. In pursuit of her roots, Danielle learns how much of life in America is transplanted from Southern Italy.
