Our big adventure.

This is a blog about our big adventure.

December 14th 2006.

After 3 years of searching, we bought a beautiful ‘casa colonica’ near Chiusi, where Tuscany meets Umbria. It stands on an ancient hunting estate, called Le Coste, and we are moving there to renovate the house and then start an art school running painting and art history courses for people who love Italy, Tuscany, Umbria, great food and wine, stunning landscapes, and blue skies, just like we do.

We want to create some stunning apartments in the stables and outbuildings of the house to accommodate our guests, and to tame the land around the house and make a vegetable garden, build an outside kitchen and, and……but this is the very beginning of the adventure and we are not there yet. Not by a long way.
