That's right! I am in love!!!!
Ciao amici!
I thought I would put some thoughts to words during a quick break for the day. I spent the morning touring the lovely city of Pistoia and I must say, I am in love with Pistoia. There is something about this city that I can't explain. It's the feel of the place I think that just gets me. As I was walking around the city, learning of its history and taking in its beauty, I was also imagining myself moving here with my first love... Josh, of course! :)
If you have visited Pistoia you probably know what I am talking about. If not, you don't want to miss this hidden gem in Tuscany. I dream of moving here after my wedding, taking Italian courses and spending time with the people of this area. In all the time I have been traveling to Italy, I never once wanted to stay in one place so much. Don't get me wrong, I appreciate all the areas I have visited in italy and Tuscany specifically, but this town feels like it was made for me.
Why you ask? First, it is a small area that is not overrun by tourists. In lieu of the souvenir shops on every corner, you find true Italian shopping. You are close to the more popular areas like Lucca and Florence but far enough away that you don't have the stress of big cities. Plus, everything you need is right here. There is a daily market for food, a weekly market for fine clothing and so much more.
I hope to send my friends and clients that have already experienced the major cities of Italy. This is a great city for people who now want to see a different side of Italy and the Italian people.
Oh, it's time to go to a wine tasting in Capezzana. I will write about it and more about the city soon.
Ciao for now!
