EDITOR’S NOTE
Exploring the small towns of Toscana, from the hills of Chianti to Val d’Orcia, with Pienza, San Gimignano and Montereggioni as firm favourites, and gathering experiences that transport me back there every time I lay my eyes on this photograph that I framed: The hour spent in Elizabeth Cochrane’s art gallery in Pienza looking onto the Camminata Panoramica with its breathtaking views of the Tuscan countryside, talking, admiring her works and listening to 80s music. Eating the best ice cream at Gelateria Dondoli in San Gimignano. Strolling the small, charming, beautifully contained Montereggioni at dusk. Spending a few hours in the shade during the scorching afternoon hours at a family-owned winery in Val d’Orcia. Walking around at dawn trying to catch the fog above the rolling hills. The warm welcome and stay ensured by our wonderful hotel host somewhere near Siena – listening to the people on the ground is always the best way to feel and live the reality of a place. Not wanting to leave from a small paper shop in Siena, where the owner only spoke Italian. Siena… although not among the smaller towns, I fully embraced and loved it. We returned to it a few times during our stay, but would love to re-discover it in her more quiet moments.
