Once in a lifetime---everyone dreamed of embarking into a Tuscan holiday and who would not be? It's probably one of life's greatest indulgences!
I am no exemption....Aside from Cornwall in England, St.Kilda in Scotland and Klosters in Switzerland, another European destination I am aching to hop-in someday is the region of Tuscany in Italy.
Famous for its three romantic and artistic cities: Florence, Pisa and Sienna, Tuscany is home to several historical landmarks like the Leaning Tower of Pisa and medieval castles. It is in this province that, well according to various sources, travelers can taste authentic, home-made Italian Pizzas and wines. I am not into pizza (I hate it) -- I would just choose other traditional Tuscan foods like Pappardelle sulla lepre or Crespelle Crepes with Aperitif.
I've been fascinated with Tuscany ever since I was a teenager because of its captivating countryside and enthralling landscapes and vineyards and this amusement was even intensified when I watched "Letters from Juliet" (which was entirely shot in Tuscany), I also read the blog of Lisa Jobs, a Harvard communication graduate and eldest daughter of the late Apple co-founder, Steve Jobs, where she described how wonderful and fulfilling to be in Tuscany and how she had hoped to live there.
Lisa, whom the PC unit -- Lisa of Apple Incorporated, was named, wrote a beautiful line in the last paragraph of her blog: "Italy is where the soul went to find calm and love and I want to hold the best of it at the palm of my hand".

Tuscany is one of the most popular regions in Europe among travelers because of its unique historical landmarks and romantic holiday locations where everyone can freely stroll around its countryside and coastline with a soothing feeling of being "at home". Tuscany is home also to famous Italian geniuses like Galileo Galili and Leonardo Da Vinci. It is in this region where visitors can witness the rich artistic and renaissance culture of Italy. Tuscany's capital city is Florence, just three hours from Rome.
Its fascinating villages, especially Sienna and Pisa are just some of the favorite wedding and honeymoon destination choices of the rich and the famous. Aside from its romantic countryside, the region overlooked the fabulous Mediterranean sea with its gorgeous sparkling cobalt blue water beckoning below. Authentic Italian wines are famous in Tuscany because of its vast vineyards around the region.
