JON POLLOCK says (Ciao) AndiamoJon Pollock is the Founder & CEO of Ciao Andiamo - providing authentic, insider journeys of Italy. In a candid conversation among old friends, Jon shares his experiences growing up in Long Island - and coming to terms with being gay. We learned more about how our society should challenge our assumptions beyond Will & Grace, Rupaul, and/or even Mayor Pete. Like anyone, it’s just a part of who they are.After years studying and working in Italy, becoming a Harvard grad and brand manager - Jon found himself daydreaming of past Italian adventures. He yearned to share more of the food, wine, and culture that had brought him so much joy - so quit his job, took the leap, and started a company. Now a husband and father (to a Welsh terrier), Jon leads teams in NY + Italy dedicated to sharing authentic Italian experiences. Even amidst the pandemic, Ciao Andiamo is bringing Italy to friends, family and teammates - now through virtual classes - bringing home the passion that Jon discovered long ago. LEARN ABOUT JON CiaoAndiamo.com CiaoClass.com MENTIONS BOOK: “The Great Believers” (Rebecca Makkai) - goodreads.com/book/show/45304101-the-great-believers PERSON: Amy Sedaris - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amy_Sedaris TV: “Strangers with Candy” (1999) - imdb.com/title/tt0194624 See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
