    My sister, an artist, and I were supposed to go to Italy, then into Austria and Germany, this past May, 2020.
    We had planned the trip for 2 years.
    Sigh.
    Thank you, Rick Steves- I now come home from a busy day at my front-line job, brew myself a hot cuppa and sit and "travel" with you.

    I’m Scottish, from Glasgow, and I live in Siena. Everything that he said is correct, no exaggeration. The city is stunning- you have to experience it to really feel the historic ambiance and beauty. The food that you see in the video is what we eat every day, without exception. Poor quality wine doesn’t exist, and vino is available from 3 euros per bottle (and upwards). Oh, and the women are beautiful angels- I married one....

    This really sets me in the mood for my visit to Italy in 2 months. I have been brushing up my Italian and this video highlights the beauty of Tuscan architecture, art, food and wine. Our home in Silicon Valley California is modeled after an Italian Villa - Villa Medici - so it is essential that we stay closely in touch with Italy to give our home even more authentic features. Thanks Rick.

    Sienna is the first place in Europe I visited when I was a teenager. It holds a very special place in my heart.
    We were there about a week before the Palio so we got to see the neighborhoods doing parades in the evenings. Not one big parade, but small groups going around in their costumes, playing music at night. The sand was being packed on the racetrack, the barriers and bleachers were setup. It was fun to see the town starting to bubble with excitement about the race.

    I have traveled from one end of the Italian mainland to the other; from Venice and Milan to Bari and Brindisi. Of all the great Italian cities I have visited, Siena is my favorite. Sadly, I wasn't there to see a palio but it was like walking through a living museum. The local history, culture and cuisine are all terrific. If I could live anywhere in Italy, this would be the place!
