Jason Pedicone
Jason has many years of extensive experience in the travel industry. While completing his Ph.D. in Classics from Princeton, he co-founded the Paideia Institute which has helped people travel to Italy, Greece, France, Germany, and more. Jason was lucky enough to be able to find and connect with his relatives in Italy and, knowing what a powerful experience it can be, now wants to help others do the same.
Mitchell Towne

During this time he fell in love with Italy. Now a high school teacher at Blair Academy, Mitchell is excited to continue helping connect people to Italian culture and experience the wonders of travel.
