Flavia Spena worked for Italy-based international jewellery, perfume and resort company Bulgari for 25 years, rising to be chief financial officer. She left in September 2014, looking for a change of lifestyle with her husband Flavio Donati, a former professional rugby player who played in Marlborough during the 1990s. The article tells the story of how the couple, originally from Rome, started their cheese making business in Nelson. Also available a Radio Rai 3 interview in Italian: Nella nuova fattoria.
