Winding Road, Montpelier, Vermont

Nothing like a winding road to lead you somewhere…..and in our case, it did.  Back to Italy.  Florence continued to call to us and so after six years of traveling between Vermont and Italy (with winter made glorious each year by four months in St. Croix), we decided to make Italy more permanent.  Maybe it was the pandemic, maybe it was age, maybe it was some unspoken sense of something unfinished, but we just knew it was time.

We left our sweet apartment in Montpelier, put our things in storage, and packed our bags…..

We arrived in Florence in the midst of a heatwave and as most Florentines headed to the sea, we settled into a top floor flat (with air-conditioning and a rooftop terrace).  What comes next?

We’re not really sure what will come next, but we’re happy we’re here and I’m very happy to be posting again!
