Villa in Tuscany

Let's start off the week by going to Italy. A villa on a hilltop in Siena, Tuscany, with breathtaking views.

I am still wondering why the painting is on its side.

Villa in Italy

This villa stands on the hills facing Lake Orta, in Northern Italy. It is called Rossi House and has been restored preserving the original 18th century frescoes and other period architectural elements. Tour time, my friends!

Restored Farmhouse in Italy

Surprise! A second post for you today!
And you, my friend, and I, are in Italy now, just a few miles away from the city of Parma. Architect Lucilla Scazzi was in charge of the restoration of this home which used to be a rundown farmhouse with an adjacent barn. The barn is now a tearoom with a fireplace, and what used to be the stables is now the kitchen.


















Hope you enjoyed our second tour!
