Last week we arrived in the Tuscany region of Italy. We are staying in the old town of Volterra, which is located in the Pisa province. The town itself is a walled in city, situated on the top of a mountain. First impressions of this place is the architecture is second to none that I have ever seen. Every brick, every crevice of every building, the attention to detail is absolutely astonishing. So far it is has been so cool and so much fun to experience a culture that is so different than the one we are used to back home. I am looking forward to the rest of this trip and all of the things we have planned!! (Submitted on January 16, 2025)
