Life in Tuscany in the Age of Coronavirus

Good morning!

I'm starting to feel like a guide again
Venice?... Nope...
Firsts & lasts of the season from our garden... Guess which one is the last of the season!
Pinch me... This can't be real... but it is. Francesco and I are on a research trip planning an unedited itinerary for the REAL "undiscovered Tuscany". If a day like this with dips in the crystalline Mediterranean, hikes between the ruins of 11th c. monasteries, Etruscan tombs hidden in the woods, Roman temples, Etruscan walls and a cliff-top Medieval fortresswith views of the island of Elba can all be done in an easy day's hike that ends with a glass of incredible biodynamic wine and a stroll in good company through a tiny farm resort with breathtaking views, and I can call this work, then.... BRING IT ON!
History is not a burden on the memory but an illumination of the soul.
Candied violets and doughnuts... Today I've dedicated myself to sugar-coating the beautiful and the gluttonous. Pure hedonism on a cold, windy spring day.
