Maybe one day I'll go back to basque in the sun and soak up la bella vita.

The weather was overcast on our visit to San Gimignano, a village strategically perched at the top of Tuscan hill. But we didn't let that dampen our spirits. This fortified town has slowly spread out since it was founded in the 6th century.
The town was almost destroyed by bombing during World War II, when allied forces received mistaken intel that the village was filled with enemy forces. Legend has it that a priest smuggled out of the village eventually persuaded the army to cease firing on the city. Still, San Gimignano was not left completely unscathed:
San Gimignano was quaint, and the Tuscan countryside stunning.

This is the story of our house and farm. Jordan and I designed the house, and Jordan (with the help of family and friends) is building it. It's a "green" house, which means that, wherever possible, the materials we use are natural, local and safe for the environment. Once the house is complete, we will keep you updated on the progress of the farm. We hope you enjoy watching our house, farm and family grow!
