Today, our Cooking Class begins again. 🌿🇮🇹

After a summer break, when the intense heat made us stop to protect the wellbeing of our guests, today we return with even more enthusiasm.

And where do we begin?

In our garden.

Fresh vegetables, a basket in our guests’ hands, and then into the kitchen together.

Because Italian cooking is not simply about recipes.

It is tradition, culture, family and knowledge passed from one generation to another.

For us, sharing these traditions with people who come to Villa Le Torri from around the world is something we are deeply proud of.

We don’t just teach how to cook Italian food.
We share where it comes from. ❤️

From our garden to our kitchen.
From our traditions to your memories.

“Before I learned how to love you… I watched them do it.”



My dear Good Giant,

there is something I understand today
that I could never have understood as a child.

Their hands.

My father’s hands.

My mother’s hands.

I watched those hands work on you for years.

I saw them tired.

Dirty with dust.

Marked by work.

Sometimes empty of money…

but never empty of courage.

As a child, I thought that was simply what parents did.

I didn’t understand.

I didn’t understand that every stone they saved
was taking a little of their strength.

That every problem solved
meant another worry they carried silently.

That while they were giving you back your youth…

they were giving you years of their own lives.

And yet…

I never heard them ask you for anything in return.

They simply believed in you.

When others might have seen an old house,

they saw the beautiful woman you could become again.

And they stayed.

Day after day.

Year after year.

Until your wounds became beauty.

Until your silence became laughter.

Until you stood proudly on this hill again.

Today, those hands are older.

They move a little differently.

And sometimes I look at them…

then I look at you.

Your stones.

Your windows.

Your garden.

Your flowers.

And suddenly I understand.

Their hands are everywhere.

Perhaps this is what it means to leave something behind.

Not having your name written on a wall.

But putting so much love into something…

that your presence remains there
even when your hands are resting.

And if today I know how to take care of you,

my dear Good Giant,

it is because long before you taught me…

I learned by watching them love you.

🤍

Next Sunday, I’ll tell you another page of our story.

Because some inherit a house.

I inherited the responsibility of loving her.

Some returns tell a story more powerful than a thousand words. ❤️

Yesterday we welcomed guests from Belgium, who first discovered Villa Le Torri back in 1999 and have never forgotten us. 🇧🇪❤️

We welcomed back our loyal friends from Germany 🇩🇪 and met new guests from Canada, who found us through the most precious recommendation of all: word of mouth from someone who has already stayed with us. 🇨🇦

And today, we are waiting for our dear friends from Ireland, who return every year to what has become their home in Tuscany. 🇮🇪❤️

Different countries. Different stories. One thing in common:

Villa Le Torri is not simply a place you come to.
It is a place you come back to. ❤️

Welcome home.

29/08/2026

Our food begins long before it reaches the table. 🌿

It begins in our garden, in patient hands, in recipes passed down with love.

We don’t simply cook for our guests.

We share a little piece of who we are. ❤️

From our garden to your heart.

Some goodbyes tell us more than words ever could. ❤️

Thank you to all the wonderful guests who shared this week with us, and especially to our dear friends from Munich — George, Martina, Roland, Angela, Herman, Claudia, Carina, Niki, Olivia, Manfred, Gaby and Sigrun— for two unforgettable weeks together.

George, I will never forget what you told me: as your car got closer to Villa Le Torri, you could feel the excitement growing… until you had goosebumps all over your body.

And Richard from the UK… the strong, adventurous man I came to know, surprised me at goodbye with unexpected tears. ❤️

One with goosebumps arriving.
One with tears leaving.

Perhaps this is the greatest gift our guests can give us.

Because when a place makes you emotional both arriving and leaving… it has become more than a holiday.

Thank you all. Until we meet again. 🤍

“Perhaps we have been growing together all along… just in opposite directions.”



My dear Good Giant,

sometimes I look at you
and something makes me smile.

When we first met,
I was only a little boy.

You were the old one.

Tired.

Wounded by time.

A beautiful elderly woman
who seemed to have lived too much
and expected very little from the future.

I ran between your stones
without understanding you.

I jumped over your wooden beams.

I played inside your wounds.

And you…

silently watched me grow.

Then something strange happened.

Year after year,
my parents gave you their strength.

We gave you our hands.

Our sacrifices.

Our time.

Our love.

And slowly…

you began to grow younger.

Your garden bloomed.

Your windows opened.

Your rooms filled with laughter.

Children ran through you again.

People from all over the world filled your heart with life.

And today, sometimes,
I stand in front of you and realize…

the little boy has grown older.

But you…

you have never looked younger.

And perhaps that’s how it should be.

Because while I was helping you find your youth again…

you were giving me something far more precious.

My life.

My childhood is inside you.

My parents’ dreams are inside you.

My happiest memories are inside you.

And now, when I walk through your old walls,
I no longer wonder who has taken care of whom.

I only know that we have walked together.

Almost my entire life.

And if one day my steps become slower…

I hope you will still be standing here.

Beautiful.

Proud.

Full of voices.

Watching another child run between your stones…

just as you once watched me.

🤍

Next Sunday, I’ll tell you another page of our story.

Because growing older beside something you love
is not losing time.

It is having had the privilege of living it.

Some memories wait years to come home. 🤍

This Sunday morning, Tuscany has given us one of those perfect awakenings: a brilliant blue sky, beautiful light and a gentle summer temperature.

But today, what warms my heart most is not the sunshine.

Yesterday we welcomed our new guests from Canada and Georgia, and as I often do, I asked two young women from Georgia a simple question:

“How did you find Villa Le Torri?”

I wasn’t prepared for the answer.

One of them looked at me and said:

“I was here before.”

She was only eight years old.

It was 2007.

Nineteen years have passed.

She grew up. Life moved on. So many places, people and experiences must have filled those years…

and yet, somewhere inside her, Villa Le Torri remained.

Yesterday, she came back.

There are moments in this work that are difficult to put into words.

Because you suddenly understand that while you thought you were simply giving a family a beautiful holiday in Tuscany…

you were becoming part of a child’s memories.

And nineteen years later, that little girl found her way back to us. ❤️

Perhaps this is the greatest gift Villa Le Torri could ever receive.

Not being remembered for a swimming pool, a beautiful garden or a holiday in the Chianti countryside…

but for a feeling strong enough to survive nineteen years.

To our new guests from Canada and Georgia, welcome to our home.

And to that little eight-year-old girl who never completely forgot us…

welcome back.

Some people return to a place.

Others return to a piece of their childhood. 🤍

Happy Sunday from Villa Le Torri, Chianti, Tuscany, near Florence.

Saturday mornings at Villa Le Torri always carry a little emotion. 🤍

For some, it is time to say arrivederci. For others, one last swim under the Tuscan sun before the journey home.

A special thank you to our dear friends from Munich, Germany, who return every year and spend two beautiful weeks with us. Seeing familiar faces come back is one of the greatest gifts this work can give us. ❤️

And while this morning is made of goodbyes, tonight the same garden will be filled with new voices, new smiles and new stories around our Welcome Buffet.

This is Saturday at Villa Le Torri, in the Chianti countryside of Tuscany:

some hugs say goodbye… while our hearts are already preparing to say welcome.

Have a wonderful weekend from Tuscany. 🌿☀️

Sometimes the smallest things carry the biggest memories. 🤍

This little pot left Villa Le Torri in Tuscany in 2024 and travelled all the way to Western Australia with Paul and Suellen.

Today it holds their beautiful lavender.

But perhaps it holds something else too…

A week in Tuscany.
A garden.
A small village.
Smiles, conversations and moments they still remember with affection.

Paul and Suellen wrote to us that every time they look at it, they remember their time with us in San Quirico in Collina.

And these words touched me deeply.

Because this is what I hope for every person who walks through our gate:

that when the holiday ends, Villa Le Torri doesn’t completely stay behind.

That something of us travels home with you.

A scent.
A flavour.
A friendship.
A memory.

Or simply a little pot that, years later and thousands of kilometres away, suddenly brings Tuscany back into your heart. ❤️

Thank you, Paul and Suellen, for giving such meaning to something so small.

We will be waiting for you in June 2028.

Until then, a little piece of Villa Le Torri is already there with you. 🌿

“Perhaps this is the secret that has kept you young: you have never been afraid to love again.”



There are a few hours every Saturday
when Villa Le Torri becomes silent.

The last guests have left.

The garden is empty.

The suitcases are gone.

And for a little while…

it’s just her and me again.

Just like many years ago.

But there is one enormous difference.

In 1979, when my family first found her,
her silence was filled with loneliness.

She was an old, tired woman
who had almost forgotten what it felt like to be loved.

Today…

her silence is different.

Because she knows.

She knows that soon
another car will climb the hill.

Another family will open the gate.

Someone will look at her for the first time.

Someone will touch her ancient stones.

Someone will sit beneath her trees.

Someone will laugh around our table.

And once again…

she will fall in love.

I sometimes wonder how she does it.

After thousands of goodbyes,
she has never learned to close her heart.

Quite the opposite.

The more people she loves,
the younger she becomes.

And perhaps, my dear Good Giant…

that is the secret you have been trying to teach me all these years.

Growing older doesn’t mean losing the ability to feel.

Maybe growing older beautifully means exactly the opposite:

having lived through everything…

and still having the courage
to open your heart as if it were the first time.

So every Saturday,
after the silence…

I hear another car coming up the hill.

I look at her.

And almost want to whisper:

“They’re here.
You can love again.”

And somehow…

I know she already knows.

🤍

Next Sunday, I’ll tell you another page of our story.

Because perhaps the secret to staying young
is simply never stopping loving.
