ABOUT ME

I came to Italy in search of cheese...

Ok, so I love food. I have also always loved being outdoors. Back in my native state of Minnesota I had limited hiking options. When I moved to Tuscany I realized I could hike and enjoy nature year-round. I have created this blog to help others find unique trails and memories throughout Italy. 

A Presto!
