Pino and I moved into a crumbling farmhouse outside Assisi in 1975.
What unforgettable years working the land, learning so much from our rural friends (you can see shots of “the good ole days” below).
Pino has restored our farmhouse now – and not only: behind it, he’s built three comfortable rental apartments.
Come and stay.

Hello Annie,
I hope you remember me. I am sitting with Diane Eagleson looking at your website and my European heart wants to be in Italy – this afternoon! I also have to add you look the same as I remember and your husband looks
like such a wonderful man who has helped you have an extraordinary life.
I have had one as well and am very grateful.
Just know you are remembered with much affection and I am happy for you.
