Ribollita Reboiled
Transplanted from Louisiana to New York, to Florence, to New York...and hopefully back to Florence once more. Transplanted? I like to say reboiled, because like great ribollita, life just gets better every day, and tastes even better if it's a little spicy!

My path
Italy
Florence
I would like to live in Italy from June 2007 (until June 2008)
My life & projects in this location:
Moved there when my daughter was 7/8 months and husband was going back to school.
My occupation:
Pilates Instructor/New Mom
What I like about this destination:
It was small enough that I felt comfortable finding my way around, but "city" enough not to stick out like a sore thumb. I loved the rich design history and the friendliness of the locals.
What I don't like about this destination:
Not much! One big thing was finding biologico produce and alternative foods, but as I got to know the city, I knew where to find what I needed.
