Our stay with Mari was a great experience. Her house is placed in a beautiful area of Tuscany. There is a short walk into San Casciano which is a small nice town where you also can take a bus ride to Florence within 30 minutes.

Erik just stayed for a couple of days, but I must say he is one of the handiest person I have ever met. He can fix anything, and you don't need to tell him what to do. He knows everything about cutting wood.
He is a great talker too, and a hard working person.
He gave us yoga lesson on the terrace, he shared life experiences... Thanks million… read more
