How to travel to south Italy, fall in love and never return is the title of Caspar Diederik video project made for Can't Forget Italy in a Digital Diary filmed in the Basilicata region, Italy.
Caspar said the story:
"Young dutch visual storyteller follows dream and undertakes a voyage of discovery to the unknown south of Italy. He ends up in a most curious place. It's one of worlds most ancient settlements, continuously inhabited, in the world called Matera. A behyve of alleys and streets, houses half cavated from rock formations. The first night he spends in a design hotel in a deep cave! From his new home he skims the region of Basilicata in search for stories to tell. He'd find an important reason to stay in these lands, yes of course: LOVE. Driven by fiery love and passion he seeks to become a local. But that's not too easy. Their standards are high: you have to have courage, speak the local language, eat and pray in order to love and be loved."

To live my Passion
