If you’re fortunate enough to live in or near Florence or you are planning on being here in spring, there are even more incredible ways to enjoy this extraordinarily beautiful city!
Florence will be in “bloom” and several museums have extraordinary once-in-a-lifetime exhibits opening!
I fell in love with Puglia and Salento style back in 2014 when I met and started collaborating with Ylenia & Michele (YLTOUR DMC)! I still love it and visiting after almost two COVID years was sweeter than ever!
Looking back, reflecting, on 2021… and looking forward to 2022. What will the new year bring?
I do love “Learning with Locals” and today I’m honored to introduce you to the family of artisans at Scarpelli Mosaici of Florence…
Bari is the impressive capital of Puglia, the “heel of Italy’s boot”.
Despite my extensive travel here, I had never been to the capital city &I was very much looking forward to visiting with friends & local experts, Ylenia and Michele!
Today I’m going to introduce you to a museum dedicated to “paintings in stone”…the Museum of the Opaficio delle Pietre Dure in Florence, Italy!
As my new chapter here in Italy continues I have decided to share timely updates and tips, as well as random thoughts and observations (and, of course, a few opinions!) on what’s happening here…direct from your Boots on the Ground in the Boot to YOU!
A few thoughts as I look back on my new chapter here in Florence, Italy! ♥
It’s hard to believe that a year (and what a year for all of us!) has passed since I landed in Florence after over a year of planning and, despite the pandemic, set off on this new chapter in October 2020.
I love sharing about guests who have had fabulous, wonderful experiences with my Friends of Victoria!
Today, I have the pleasure of sharing about Ariana & Ian…and, trust me, you’ll wish you were here!
Have you ever admired the frescoes of great artists and wondered how they are created? After taking a fresco painting workshop with Alan, I gained a new appreciation for this fine art.
