BELLA TOSCANA: Archivio Diaristico Nazionale Foundation

The Archivio Diaristico Nazionale Foundation was born in 1984 in Pieve Santo Stefano
a little village in Tuscany which was almost completely destroyed during the Second World War, from an idea by the writer and journalist Saverio Tutino
There are a total of 7000 documents including memoirs, diaries, letters and autobiographies. While travelling for Bella Toscana, we had the opportunity to spend time in the archive, finding our way through many interesting diaries. This video is our way to say thank you, and to show the archive to the rest of the world.

People and stories in Florence

We started Bella Toscana in Florence 
with the people 

and their stories
There is our favourite guy in the historical San Lorenzo food market.
then there is Luca, who gives new life to lost soul furniture in San Frediano 
Roberto, who offered us a coffee, a real one, while telling us the secrets of the market. 
I want to point out that not one of them had time to stop and pose, 
but they had no problem sharing their stories with us.

#BellaToscana, Between Tuscany and Umbria


... while we're in Chianti, 
I just want to share with you a few photos of 
on the border between Tuscany and Umbria. 
If you believe in 
green hills, 
natural food, 
slow living, 
this is the place.

Il Fontanaro organic farm house for #BellaToscana

Bella Toscana is arriving in Tuscany. 
We are just on the border 
between Tuscany and Umbria 
a real 
Heaven on Earth. 
With Alina and Lucia, 
the owners, 
you'll get the best of a 
real organic farm house lifestyle.  
This video is about our first night in Fontanaro: 
making pizza, 
celebrating with Champagne, 
and ... yes, being a bellydancer.
