Tuscan Dreams

By: Ivanka Di Felice

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

When Ivanka and David discover the downside of their “too good to be true” Chianti region house, they resume searching for their dream home in Tuscany.

Join them on a harrowing journey as professional house hunters, while you peek into Tuscan villas, apartments, and haylofts. At long last, they find an idyllic spot, surrounded by rolling hills graced with vineyards and olive groves, distant stone villas, and clusters of cypress trees. But the home has been vacant for years. Follow their adventures as they embark on renovations, endeavouring to bring the abandoned house and garden back to life.

If you’ve ever imagined packing it in and moving to Italy, the book also provides practical advice on how to do so.

As always, a cast of quirky characters enters their lives, and the author’s candid, sympathetic viewpoint captures their charm and the local color.

Can Ivanka and David finally relax and sit back with a bottle of Chianti wine to watch the sun set over the Tuscan hills? Escape to Italy in this witty, heartfelt travel memoir, Tuscan Dreams, to find out.

This book can be read as a stand-alone or feel free to tag along for more laugh out loud adventures in Italy by reading the complete Simply Italian! Series: A Slice of Italy, A Slice of Tuscany, Tuscan Dreams, Paying It Forward, Fa’ l’italiano! (Be Italian!) and the prequel, My Zany Life.
