Today while I was struggling to write while feeling not in the mood to write at all, I happened upon an article on the New York Time's website about Matera, an Italian city I had the pleasure of visiting two years ago. I was there for a writers conference and stayed for a little over a week. While I was there, I met some lovely people and enjoyed the beauty and culture of this wonderful city to the fullest.

Have a look at the article. I think you'll be enchanted by Matera and Basilicata.
