Travel Puglia Like a Local
Not Like a Tourist
A free travel guide written by a local farmer.
This guide is how I’d help a friend visiting my land for the first time.
Start with the free guide
This free guide is not a teaser and it’s not a generic introduction.
It’s a real part of my book, created to help you understand how Puglia works, how to move around, and how to approach this region with the right mindset.
Inside the free guide you’ll find:
How traveling in Puglia really works (and why having a car matters)
How the guide is structured, province by province
The way I suggest visiting towns, beaches, and countryside without rushing
My personal approach to food, places, and local life
It’s meant to be useful, simple, and honest.

A dedicated section on Matera and nearby Basilicata
Everything is written to be read easily on your phone, tablet, or laptop, while you travel.
HI, I’M PETRU
I was born and raised in Puglia, and I’m a fifth-generation farmer.
Together with my family, I work the land, produce olive oil, almonds, cereals, wine, vegetables and live the slow rhythm that still exists in this part of southern Italy.
I’m not a publisher and I’m not a travel agency.
I wrote this guide to share Puglia the way locals do: calmly, honestly, and with respect for the land and the people.
When you read this guide, imagine I’m walking next to you, pointing things out the same way I would with a friend.

Of course. You’ll find my email inside the guide, and I’m always happy to help if I can.
SEE YOU IN PUGLIA
Whether we meet in person or not, I hope this guide helps you feel welcome, relaxed, and inspired.
Puglia is my home, and sharing it with respect is something I truly care about.
With warmth,
Petru
