  • This week's episode showcases the charming Tuscan city of Pistoia. It's an historical city in the northwestern part of the region that we discovered almost exactly a year ago when we began our search for potential cities to live.

    We've now lived in Pistoia for a month and can't wait to tell you all about our experience. We'll discuss what Pistoia has to offer both as a place to visit during your travels in Italy as well as a place to call home.
