In October, I will be travelling outside of my comfort zone. (not found on any map!) I will be living, by myself, in Lucca for the month.
My goal is to speak only Italian AND look for new venues and activities for future Pronto Marcella travellers. I chose Lucca because:
1. I don’t know anyone there who speaks English and
2. the cultural life is rich enough that I won’t get bored.
I have rented an apartment in Palazzo Tucci
I might even take a class at Lucca Italian School
Maybe I will dust off that draft of a historical novel set in Tuscany. Does anyone remember the adventures of Celine?
Enjoy the slideshow of Lucca!
[metaslider id=3673 cssclass=” alignnormal”]I will take some day trips to Cinque Terre, Torre del Lago, Portofino and other places I haven’t yet even heard of yet. Any suggestions? Let me know!
In November, I will stay with friends, helping with the olive harvest
If you know anyone interested in participating in my next groups, Spring or Fall 2020, please let me know!
Ciao bella! I’m interested in the Spring 2020, but I am unable to do the longer trip like Debbie and Robin did as it is my first year at a new job, and I don’t want to ask for the time off. Please keep me posted! Grazie mille.
If you can do around ten days,then it’s a real possibility! I will keep you posted!
Oh Marcie: I recognize all of these pictures of Lucca. Such a beautiful place! And I LOVE your apartment! Can’t wait for more pictures.
Love, Robin
Photos will come! We had such a great day there just a few months ago. I felt i needed to do something different and a tiny bit scary. That’s how I define an adventure!
What a wonderful adventure, Marcie! Lucca is a lovely place. Look forward to reading about your time there.
Thank Mary! I remember spending a day there with you and your friends, walking the walls and wandering through the streets of Lucca. I will certainly be posting about my time in the area.
Have a wonderful time!! Sounds fantastic. Sending hugs. xoxo
thanks, Judy! think of you often and hope we can get together soon!
