Special thanks to Emily O'Boyle for a wonderful job of putting this video trailer together, and to Kyle Reeder for playing the guitar piece. Thanks also to the early reviewers of the book whose quotes were used therein. I appreciate you all. And to the three readers of this blog, I hope you enjoy the video!  :)

    This video along with your wonderful familiar voice, brought tears this morning. I am sure they are from the Lord.
    Thank you Chris.

    Chris your words always inspire passion, but when paired with those picturesque scenes of the Italian countryside they have the ability to bring people to a whole new level. Here’s to the sights and scenes we have yet to discover, but will now thanks in part to your book and guidance.

    Thanks Chris! You are uncovering a genre that is unfamiliar to almost every North American, but desperately needed. If people would just slow down and experience the restoration and healing that comes from “getting away from it all”, the benefits to our relationships, our health, and our productivity would be significant.
    Thanks for putting this video together. It’s a great dream building tool!

    WOW WOW WOW CHRIS!!! I cannot wait for the book to come out!! A totally AMAZING VIDEO!!! I had a GREAT idea. How about if everyone on TEAM/LIFE picked their favorite spot in the world and just stayed there for a whole month and did nothing, but vacation there!! Trying to capture all the beautiful sights!! Gathering some history too. Then when they came back they could write a book about their relaxing vacation!! I would choose Hawaii. Just saying is all. WOOOO WHOOO FIRED UP!!!!

    What a beautiful trailer. I’m so excited about your attempt to bottle up your experiences. Like everything you do, it will be oxygen for the soul. I’m amazed how these books authored by Policy Council members are so anticipated, and yet I’m always pleasantly surprised how my expectations are surpassed. God bless

    When I first heard about the release of “a month of italy” I admit that I was completely uninterested. After watching this video a dozen times, nearly crying every time, I remain unsure to why I would have thought of anything less than an amazing parallel vision into Chris Brady’s interpretation of what vacationing should be. Wow! I’m sooooo excited to read a month of italy.thank you chris

    Really looking forward to enjoying your new book. Your video and music touched something within my heart…could it be that someday my family and I could go and explore Italy as you and yours did?
    Ahhhh….what a joy in slowing down and appreciating the important and fleeting moments. Thanks for your insightfulness. I will soon be reading it with my daughter and dreaming of the day…
    And you have at least 3 fans right here at our home…so i’m sure there’s waaayyyy more!

    My friend told me about the video for your new book, so, throughout last weekend, I checked it out, I really liked it. On Monday morning, I was hit in the head at work and got a concussion and the first thing that came into my mind after I was hit, was the song for your video. An instant calm came over me, that everything would be okay. Since we have been involved with Team, we have continued to discover what exactly the life we’ve always wanted looks like. Thanks Chris

    Chris, thanks for the memory jogger. I’m just starting your book, but after just a few pages, and this wonderful video, it brings me back to my trip in Central and South America that lasted 2 years. The images, sounds, and peaceful feelings that lasted for months at a time are unforgettable. Life changing.
    Thanks for reminding me to slow down to recharge, not just for me, but for my family and friends.
