Jan Bucher is old school Lago di Como, Italy’s exclusive lake escape. But what does that really mean? Bucher is four generations of Como culture and hospitality, thanks to a great-grandfather who snatched up a Bellagio hotel at the turn of the century and created an epic destination - Grand Hotel Villa Serbelloni.
In this episode, Jan joins Erica for a conversation on growing up in Lake Como, and dishes on how a traditional, 150 year old hotel translates in the 21st century. And yes, we asked him about the Clooney effect.
