Viva La Bella Vita! Live the good life!

Don't just take another vacation, immerse yourself! Live like an Italian. Arezzo is the best little secret you may have never heard of. Right here, in the central heart of Italy, you can live in a historical apartment, walk the Corso each day to your Italian class where you learn the language and embark on tours and experiences exploring the unique Tuscan villages you would never find otherwise. Take a cooking class from an Italian chef, explore the Tuscan countryside on foot or bike. Return in the evening to meet up with your new friends for an aperitivo and to "swim" the Corso while window shopping and talking fashion, love, and fun before heading off for dinner and a concert, gallery opening, or dancing. This is life in Italy. It's waiting for you.

Picnic in the Park for Spring

4/8/2015

0 Comments

 
Visit Arezzo in the Spring and I will take you on a picnic you won't forget. Picnics are a favorite pastime of Italians when the weather starts to warm and the ground is dry. We will walk to pick up a delicious lunch from the local favorite artisan sandwich shop, Pannini & Co, and make our way to Petrarca, a sprawling park in the courtyard of the Duomo and just beyond Piazza Grande.

Imagine yourself enjoying an Italian picnic in Petrarca: we can take in the beautiful views of Arezzo, soak in the warm Tuscan sunshine, listen to the church bells, and watch from a distance while local children play a game of soccer. To one side of us the ancient steeple of the Cathedral, to the other, the ancient stone walls of the Fortezza. We lounge comfortably on the sprawling lawn at the base of the exquisite monument of Francesco Petrarca - Arezzo's own famous Italian classical poet and philosopher.

Nicknamed the Father of Humanism, Francesco Petrarca's philosophy helped spark the Renaissance.

Easter in Arezzo with its antiquity fair - La Fiera Antiquaria

4/4/2015

0 Comments

 
The monthly antiques market/flea market with its 500 exhibitors and about 100 little shops open all year round during the first weekend of the month, is, since 1968, an added incentive to visit this art-laden city of Arezzo--right in the heart of Tuscany. The antique market takes advantage of the extraordinary scenery of Piazza San Francesco, Piazza Grande, and the Logge del Vasari. The stalls spread over the cobbled-stone side alleys and squares across the historical center, with a backdrop of ancient stone buildings. The influx of Italians and tourists alike, filling the streets of the bustling open-air market, transform the character of the city for the two days of the antique market/flea market.

do something different: get away from the known destinations, explore the small towns and learn a bit more about the local culture. For Easter in Arezzo, as a special event, the market will be extending till Monday.

Vestri Cioccolato - Fill a Chocolate Egg with Love (or whatever you wish!)

4/1/2015

0 Comments

 
Here in Italy at Easter time, the shop windows fill with elaborately designed chocolate eggs. There are eggs as large as 1 ft tall, and most are hollow with a beautifully wrapped gift inside, including toys for children, and fun things for adults too (sunglasses, jewelry, collectibles.)

Ahhh, but here in Arezzo, we have our very own Vestri Cioccolato--an artisanal chocolate producer who grows their own cocoa at their plantation, Santo Domingo. When you visit Arezzo at Easter, I will take you to Vestri Cioccolato, where you can bring your own gift and have a custom egg made.

    THAT'S ME

    It’s one thing to “know” someone, it’s another thing entirely to invest time to learn about that someone’s family, their health, their interests.  It takes time and effort to form a relationship – to show you really care.
