For those readers interested in learning Italian, Elena is available to conduct on-line Italian language classes for any level of ability via Zoom and she has several students currently in the US, Germany, Japan and Australia. If you require a personal tour of Lucca or Florence and/or a wine tasting or olive oil tutorial she will also be happy to tailor that personally for you. And for a guided bike tour of any of the itineraries around Lucca or the Casentino/Pratomagno described in the Travel section, Mike is available. For these or any other requests please get in touch via the form at the bottom of the About Us section.
