Sansepolcro

Sansepolcro is a quiet, safe, slow paced town renowned as the home place of the famous painter Piero Della Francesca and it contains some of his most well known works.   I came to the area mostly to meet up with a lovely couple, Anna and Fabio who I met a few times at Markets for Antiques.  They are world travelers who live among the lower slopes of the Appenines only 4 Kms from the city.  I was very lucky to arrive on the evening of a great party nearby.  Interesting people, beautiful surroundings, terrific food and vino.  It can't get any better.  Of course the weather in Italy helps so much when hanging precious decorations outdoors.

Felice the host, he made the Yurt





Camping is so different to staying in hotels, one meets the most interesting people and they're all on holidays and in a great mood.  Here's just a few of those I've had fun with lately.

15 August celebrated by about 50 people at the camp site.  A three course meal was ordered in and the wine was flowing.  All that for 12 euros.

Graziano, the wine maker par excellance.

My lovely neighbours from Holland, Monique and Geerd Jan with Soren and Willeke.  We had such fun times together I missed them when it was time to move on.
