Puglia, Italy
The Celebration
XXI • VI • MCMLXXVI
As I approach this milestone, I feel most grateful for the people life has placed along the way.
Some of you have been part of my story for decades, others more recently, but each of you holds a special place in my life.
Last year, I asked a few you to describe what they saw in me in just one word. The words that came back most often were Vibrancy, Presence, and Light. That is exactly what I hope each of you brings with you as we celebrate together.
This celebration was intentionally created to be intimate, shared with the people who feel like home to me.
During Our Time Together
If you are here, it means you are part of this moment.
Thank you for saying yes to celebrating this moment in Puglia with me. I look forward to sharing these slow, sun-filled, and meaningful days.
What follows is a glimpse into what we will experience
a celebration shaped by place, by connection, and by time, beautifully lived.

BEYOND THE CELEBRATION
Puglia is not something to rush.
It reveals itself slowly—
in the warmth of the light,
in the stillness of the afternoon,
in the simplicity of a long meal shared.
Perhaps a morning by the sea,
a walk through white-stone streets,
or nowhere at all.
Just time—
open, unhurried,
and beautifully yours,
Can't wait!
See you in Puglia.
With love,
xxxx
