Join us for a NEW virtual walk through Ravenna, a city where Roman emperors, Byzantine mosaics, and Dante himself all left their mark. Once the capital of the Western Roman Empire, Ravenna still carries the charm of its golden age, mixed with the relaxed rhythm of everyday Italian life. 🇮🇹
As we stroll together, we’ll move through elegant pedestrian streets, lined with shops and cafés, where the hum of modern life coexists with echoes of the past. We’ll pause in lively piazzas that for centuries have been gathering places for the people of Ravenna, and we’ll admire the exteriors of some of the city’s extraordinary UNESCO World Heritage Sites—monuments that remind us of Ravenna’s unique role as a crossroads of empires, cultures, and faith.
Our walk will also bring us to Dante’s district, where we’ll discover the poet’s tomb, a modest but deeply meaningful monument that continues to inspire visitors from all over the world. From there, we’ll slip into quieter corners, like the peaceful Church of San Francesco, where history and spirituality blend, and where the atmosphere of centuries past can still be felt.
Don’t miss the chance to experience Ravenna from home—join us and let this timeless city capture your imagination.

Join us for a virtual journey into the Crete Senesi, the extraordinary clay hills just south of Siena where art and nature meet in one of Tuscany’s most iconic landscapes. With their rolling horizons, winding cypress-lined roads, and shifting colors that change with every season, the Crete Senesi have long captured the imagination of painters, poets, and travelers.
Through images and stories, we’ll explore the heart of this unique land. We’ll stop in Asciano, often called the gateway to the Crete, with its medieval streets and Romanesque architecture. We’ll admire the timeless charm of Buonconvento, a walled village where the past feels present, and we’ll get a glimpse of Rapolano Terme, known for its thermal springs and ancient traditions.
Slide after slide, we’ll wander through quiet villages, ancient abbeys, and wide open countryside where history and daily life are deeply connected.
✨ Don’t miss this opportunity to experience the Crete Senesi from home and let their timeless atmosphere capture your imagination.
