Bella Tuscany

After a long breathtaking train ride through the Alps we have finally arrived to Tuscany. Things seem a little bit slower paced...
Maybe it's the sun, maybe itäs the mindset but things sure are beautiful. Far in every distance you see large farm houses in every color of the sunset. From terracotta to golden brown to honey yellow. The sun is shining on all the angles of this gorgeous Tuscan life. There are so many fields of corn planted in patches along with sunflowers... looks almost like a big quilt of land. Rolls of hay and even watermelons. Everyone seems to have a little vegetable garden in their backyard with tomatoes and peppers ready for picking for dinner. Tableclothes and jeans hang every which way out of one's windowsill. There are straight lines of cypress trees that seem to loom over these ancient hillsides. I am going to fall in love with Tuscany.
