With only a couple of days left we realized that there are still some restaurants that the owner’s of our villa recommended. I don’t know if I mentioned the amazing book that they left us filled with notes on towns worth visiting, cards from the best restaurants all over, maps of cities and parking tips [...]

Today we did our usual day of rest following the insanely packed day at the Vatican.

So much for that red eye flight making the jet lag thing easy. Friday is market day in Tuscania so we headed out to load up on fresh [...]
