Culinary Voyage to Italy, February 2004
|
We first went to stay for 5 nights at a bed & breakfast outside Florence, then we
took the train to Piemonte for another three nights before returning to Rome.
Set in the hills among olive and vineyards
was our domicile. Built originally in the
13th. century.
