The name for this episode stems from the replies of so many Italians I spoke with on my recent trip to Italy. I asked every single person I came across who works in the travel / hospitality industry what the 2022 Revenge Tourism Season was like, and their answer was rather clear....go in the off season if possible. And if you take into account the prolonged heat wave they had all summer long, November is looking like a great time to visit Italy. I was there for the last 10 days of October and it hovered around 80 degrees every day. That is not nearly as brutal as the temps of over 105 that they had for weeks on end during the summer, but 80 degrees Fahrenheit in late October is not normal either. It was still a lovely trip however, made all the more so by the generosity and friendly nature of the Italian people.
