“Nothing is ever really lost to us as long as we remember it.”

― L.M. Montgomery, The Story Girl

Everyone who has been lucky enough to walk across the red brick streets of Certaldo Alto will never forget this town. Certaldo is a medieval hamlet of the Elsa valley situated approximately 35 kilometres southwest of Florence and 45 kilometres from Siena. Enjoy its charm through the lens of Maria Cristina Nicoletti, a photo enthusiast and a Tuscan food lover. Thanks Maria Cristina!
