TUSCANY WINE ESTATE

Richard and I decided to get out of Florence for a day to visit a picturesque wine estate in Tuscany. The property was called Torre A Cona. It was built in 1066 originally as a castle, and later changed to a country estate . There are many buildings on the property now, to include an Enoteca, a large cellar and wine making buildings, as well as a hotel and some private villas/apartments. Torre A Cona has a large swimming (with a second on the horizon) as well a restaurant and bar area. This Tuscany wine estate is a great way to see the iconic Tuscan countryside.

TUSCANY ITALY

Richard and I are off to Italy next week and we are so ready to go (well, except I haven’t started packing at all yet). But we cannot wait to be back in our favorite country together this time. While thinking about my blog for this week, I thought it should be about Italy in some fashion. I am actually returning to Italy in November too for a wine/luxury hotel conference, and we are staying in Barga, which is an area of Tuscany Italy I haven’t been to before.

ETIAS VISA WAIVER

Travel has come back with a bang! Since the pandemic hit, I think we all forgot about the visa that was to be implemented in 2022 for Americans to visit Europe. So I thought this week’s blog would be on this topic. ETIAS visa waiver stands for European Travel Information and Authorization System.

LONDON HIGHLIGHTS

I thought this week might be a good time for a blog on London Highlights with the Queen’s passing recently. From a travel perspective it was either a great time – or – based on your opinion, a bad time to be in London. The crowds were massive with 5 mile long queues to visit the queen in state. British Airways reported that 15% of all flights were for the funeral. May she rest in peace after such an amazingly long and respected reign.

PACKING TIPS

I have been working on a wonderful trip for a client who is going to be traveling for 62 days in Europe. This trip is amazing and I cannot wait to follow along with her on her journeys. However, during our conversations packing for this trip became another conversation. Now, I am an over packer for sure and usually can’t manage packing for 3 weeks let along for 2 months. So I thought this might apply to others as well who needed some packing tips.
