Tuscany: Pienza, Montepulciano & Siena

 PECORINO in Pienza.

Prosecco and pecorino in Pienza (and capuccino too..way to ruin the alliteration, Liza)

 Nobiles in Montpulciano

 Just thinking about work.

 Just thinking about how much of this I could consume before being caught.

 Amazing lunch: fresh ravioli w/basil and walnuts (and pecorino, obvi), and Liza's salad with about three pounds of pancetta.
  Graziano Contrada, what up!?

 Siena! Il Palio! My horse!

 In il campo for il palio...

 ...with a couple thousand others.

 Some wise girl suggested bringing a bottle of wine, in case the opportunity presented itself. It did. Of course.

Singing along with the families. I can't wait until 500 years from now when my family will sing the song of their ancestor: "Crazy in Love."



 One more goodbye

 Represent'n Contrada Della Lupa


 Civita di Bagnoreggio


 Me and the virgin Mary
 Just being casual.
 Just being casual

 Just being a show-off
 Note: none of these signs point to America.

I. HEART. ITALY.
