FLORENCE

 

Last January, we spent a few days in Tuscany, looking for new olive oils. Every corner of the region is more beautiful than the others.We can't stop staring at the olive tree fields, the beautiful estates surrrounded by tall cypresses, the winding roads between the sunny hills..  

After having enjoyed thoses wonderful landscapes for a few days, it was already time to go back to Provence. But we couldn't leave Italy without visiting Florence for a day !
