124. Chilling at a Tuscan Farmhouse

124. Chilling at a Tuscan Farmhouse

Author: Kimberly Holcombe November 22, 2023 Duration: 30:03
We were so lucky to spend a few days at a quintessential Tuscan farmhouse, but this one comes with a whole lot of dog love! 8 dachshunds and 1 yellow lab who luckily never left our side. Everything we ate and drank came from their property which is the definition of Zero KM. Besides the full of flavor meals and the hearty and delicious wine, we were so happy to meet the other guests and get to know the friendly and generous staff. Staying in a small farmhouse like this is the best way to immerse yourself into the traditional Italian way of country life, which is simply to work hard, plant and harvest your own food and wine, and share it with others. Throw in 9 dogs, and it was pure heaven! https://www.kimberlysitaly.com Instagram Facebook 

There's a particular magic to Italy that goes far beyond its famous landmarks, a rhythm of life that you only really start to feel once you've lingered in a local piazza or navigated a bustling market. Kimberly's Italy Travel is an invitation into that deeper experience, guided by Kimberly Holcombe, whose own story began with a life-changing move to Milan years ago. That journey didn't just create memories; it reshaped her perspective, and she shares that genuine, lived-in understanding in every episode. You'll hear personal stories from her travels, often punctuated by the kind of comical, real-world lessons that no standard guidebook ever mentions. This podcast serves as a rich audio companion, weaving together passionate discussions about regional cuisine, layers of local history, and the vibrant arts that define Italy's culture. It’s about the sensory details-the taste of a perfectly simple dish, the echo in an ancient alleyway, the warmth of a conversation with a new friend. Listeners gain practical, invaluable travel tips born from direct experience, all while feeling like they're sharing a coffee and a laugh with a knowledgeable guide. Through these conversations and reflections, the aim is to transport you, offering not just a list of destinations, but a feeling for the places and people that make Italy endlessly captivating.
