Inside World of Wisdom

World of Wisdom: Your Passport to Living with More Passion, Purpose, and Pleasure is more than a travel memoir. It’s a blueprint for living a beautiful life, every day.

From the beaches of St. Barths to the temples of Vietnam, from Italian villas to mountain peaks in Aspen, Lori and William Small share the lessons, insights, and transformative encounters that shaped their philosophy: Best Day Every Day.

Each chapter is guided by a remarkable muse — artists, visionaries, chefs, and thinkers who have mastered the art of living well. Through their stories, you’ll uncover timeless principles for creating happiness, cultivating meaning, and elevating every experience into something extraordinary.

Whether you’re seeking clarity, inspiration, or a reminder that life can be richer and more intentional, World of Wisdom will take you on an unforgettable journey across cultures — and back home to yourself.

Travel with us across the world. Train your mind through neuroplasticity. Rewire your life with passion, purpose, and pleasure. World of Wisdom is your new route out of the ordinary and into the extraordinary.

    A True Embodiment of La Dolce Vita

      “It was a privilege to participate in Lori’s journey to being officially recognized as an Italian citizen. However, as I got to know Lori & Bill even better through World of Wisdom, it became clear that her official recognition was merely a formality. ‘Being Italian’ is so much more than just a passport; it is an outlook on life that Lori and William have long embraced.

        The true essence of la dolce vita — enjoying our lives to their fullest, and embracing the ups and downs while finding beauty in the journey — is the heartbeat of this book. Lori didn’t just acquire Italian citizenship; she has always possessed the spirit of it. This book is a beautiful guide for anyone looking to unlock that same passion and pleasure in their own life.”

    “Being part of this book is an honor and a joy. Lori and William have a gift for turning everyday moments into something magical. Through our “salotto” nights, we’ve shared meals, laughter, and beautiful traditions that remind us what truly matters: friendship, connection, and living fully. Their passion for discovering the soul of a place and the people who bring it to life is what makes this book so special. It’s not just a passport to the world; it’s a passport to the heart. Happiness is real only when shared with people you love.”
