There aren’t too many people who would be brave enough to drop out of a ‘stable’ university degree, pack up and travel halfway across the world to Italy to go to ‘Gelato University’. But that’s exactly what Lisa Valmorbida of Pidapipò did, and despite a couple of bumps in the road, she hasn’t looked back!
