Giada De Laurentiisexplored her family’s roots while on a recent vacation.
On Aug. 29, the former Food Network star shared an Instagram post chronicling her week in Ischia, Italy, with photos and videos of her adventures.
“I spent a week in Ischia earlier this summer with my fam & it was the most incredible trip.. soo I put together a guide to share my recs with you all & it’s finally out in the world!” she captioned the post.
In one video, De Laurentiis stuns in a pink swimsuit while she explores the mineral-rich thermal waters with her Aunt Raffy.
“I’m excited to do it. It’s something my grandmother used to do with Raffy when she was little,” the Italian-born chef explained. “It’s very therapeutic. It’s supposed to be amazing for you.”
With her aunt, she also took the plunge in a smaller pool. “Oh that was deep!” she said as she hopped in it.
“I think I found my little paradise town in Ischia,” said De Laurentiis in another clip, referring to a charming neighborhood. “It’s tiny but it’s just a gem.”
Of course, it wouldn’t be an Italian getaway without a plate of pasta. The Giadzy founder, who detailed the whole trip on her lifestyle site, can also be seen slurping a piece of bucatini with red sauce in one photo.
