San Giovanni, our home for a month. This is the local piazza that we hung out in, especially the place on the left, a restaurant called San Lorenzo's.

Welcome to San Giovanni! Here is the piazza near our apartment, I've placed a white circle in the center of the street, over our window.

Here is the beautiful trail in San Giovanni set along the banks of the Arno River that I walked/jogged on a couple of times.
