In addition to the camper van, he left her letters that are supposed to bring her happiness. But Anna has no idea what such happiness looks like. Will she find him in Calabria, where a run-down house and a grumpy gardener await her? At first impression, Briatico is not the city of dreams, but over time Anna comes to like it as well as the local delicacies, which she tries to cook herself. In Italy, she learns about her family history and gets closer to Angelo, who, however, does not show much interest in her. Will the secret recipe amaretto impress him? This already attracts the attention of the local mafia, which thwarts Anna's plans. Life is sometimes bittersweet, just like almonds.
