Some Background

I’ve been coming to southern Tuscany since 1998. In 2023, I settled into my part-time home, Cas’ Anita, in the village of Dogana (GR). In the time since I first started coming to this area, I have had the opportunity to visit many places of local interest, to sample the local wine and cuisine, to hike scenic trails, and to meet some fine people. The countryside of Tuscany, with its mesmerizing scenery and quiet ambiance, is one of those places where total relaxation is possible.
