HALF Italian | A Brother and Sister’s Journey of Reconnecting to their Italian Heritage. Born on each other’s half birthday - (Leo and Aquarius are polar opposites of each other) and half Italian by heritage - (full Italian mother). Our Italian heritage is half from the North of Italy and half from the South. This is our story of exploring our heritage and our journey towards dual citizenship. For the first half of our life - we took our Italian heritage for granted. Though we thoroughly enjoyed our mom's wonderful food, and thought her maiden name was funny, it wasn't until we were older that we began to connect with what it meant to be half Italian by blood.
