A Day In Chianti

I would love to share my experience in one beautiful village -- Chianti -- which lies in a region in central Tuscany, between Florence and Sienna. It was Christmas 2013. I took a bus from the main central station in Florence.

Now, I would love to share my experience in one beautiful village - Chianti - which lies in a region in central Tuscany, between Florence and Sienna.
It was Christmas 2013. I took a bus from the main central station in Florence. The beautiful new adventure started in the bus with the nice views all around.

In Chianti, I walked and walked, the beautiful nature hugged me. It was a nice sunny day. I walked up to one mountain. I enjoyed so many things on my way. The vineyards, the trees, the view of the small houses in the other mountains. It was an amazing experience to meditate in the nature.

Then went back to the center of Chianti, where nice shops are surrounded all around. In the evening, the place looked for me more special. Lights and smiles everywhere.

You can remember the special moments you have experienced once. Then you realize how life is beautiful, your happiness depends on the nice experiences you have lived not in the things. You are the one who can control your life. Make happy memories.
