Tuscany in February
22 Feb 2012
February can be quite cold, but it also brings us the first taste of spring, with the first warm sunny days and delicate flowers. It is also the month of Valentine’s Day and Carnival.
Tuscany in January
31 Jan 2012
January is usually one of the coldest months of the year, when sunny days alternate with snowfalls. It sees the end of the Christmas Holidays and the beginning of Carnival with its sweets and parades. It is a good month if you want to travel on a shoe-string.
Tuscany in December
14 Nov 2011
December can be either mild or quite cold. It is however one of our favorite months in Tuscany because it’s a festive month, with the seasonal holidays, the markets and the unusual views after a snowfall!
Tuscany in November
21 Oct 2011
November is one of my favourite months of the year. I love its colors, its smells, its tastes. It’s the month of chestnuts and of the olive harvest and also the month of the first holidays.
The Colors of the Fall in Tuscany
12 Oct 2011
Fall is my favourite season. Spring is festive, summer is lively, winter is cosy, but the fall is magic. We don’t get the bright shades of red of the North-American foliage, but Tuscany in the fall is just as pretty.
Tuscany in October
01 Oct 2011
October is the month when the fall starts to set in. The weather is usually still very pleasant, but some rain should be expected. However, normally, October is a great month to visit Tuscany. Don’t expect the spectacular north American foliage though! Unfortunately, we don’t get the spectacular shades of red… but we get porcini mushrooms and chestnuts!
Tuscany in September
23 Sep 2011
September is usually one of the most pleasant months of the year to be in Tuscany. It is a popula month for village festivals and weddings and it is the season of the grape harvest.
A crazy, beautiful summer!

A few photos taken in the countryside of Tuscany after the rain and in the early morning.
