Beautiful Tuscany
One of the best places to visit in Italy is Tuscany. This I only learned from a friend (Yvette) who’s a frequent traveler. She’s been to many places and from the many places she’s been to; she couldn’t stop telling about Tuscany. Well, besides Greece, of course. Basically, she likes the place primarily because she’s a lover of both art and wine. Believe me, this friend of mine is a wine freak and you can certainly tell she knows more than anyone knows about wine. She gladly insisted this is the perfect place for wine lovers like her. Well, of course after her first visit, she learned of more interesting things about the place giving her more reasons to love and choose the place as her resting haven.Just like in many countries, it has been a tradition to Tuscany people to have vacation houses out of the city. This is what makes Tuscany more popular to tourists, well, based on Yvette’s stories. She even added that most Tuscany villas are being offered as tourist inns these days. Some are converted to hotels or bed and breakfasts, which provides a very accommodating resting place for tired tourists. It makes them feel like it’s their second home. No wonder there has been several Tuscany villa rentals available for everyone. Another friend, after being enticed by Yvette’s wonderful experience in Tuscany, took his family to this region of art, food and wine. I really had to remember the name of the place where they stayed because of how enthusiastically he shared his wonderful stay in Villa Ginestra. What shook my interest was his description of the garden. I so love gardens, only for now, I could only imagine how it’s like being there. Maybe soon, hopefully, I won’t have to put up with just descriptions and stories. I’d certainly take that long vacation and fly to Tuscany.
