'Bringing Home the Birkin' Michael Tonello

'Bringing Home the Birkin' by Michael Tonello is a delightful story about his adventures traveling to the swankest places in the world in search of Hermes treasure. The story takes you from his life in Province Town to Barcelona where he finds his soul mate and then around the world to places like Paris, Luxemburg, and dozens of other luxurious places you’ve only dreamed of visiting. You’ll learn his ‘formula’ for buying Birkins in France versus Italy. You’ll laugh till you cry at the descriptions of the typical Hermes sales people. It isn’t all frolic and gallivanting though.

After cleaning out all the Hermes stores in Europe and Asia Michael finds that even traveling to the luxury capitals of the world to shop dine and visit the finest hotels can get old. His final trip to the beautiful Island of Capri (pronounced CAP ree) Italy is to recover after the loss of a very close loved one.

The story has adventure, humor, love and sorrow; all the ingredients for a great story.
