Imagine travelling with your spouse for six whole months.
Living together, working together, sleeping together. Skipping along the seashore holding hands. Discussing what brilliant ideas you can implement into your online businesses to generate even more cash.
What joy.
Laughing together. Planning together. Smooching below the stars…Never once saying “Why are you wearing THAT disgusting T-shirt again? I hate it. It’s hideous.” Or: “Oh, do me a favour will you and button it. Who do you think you are? My ‘effing Mother?”
No. Never saying that. Uh-uh.

If you have ever dreamed of visiting Thailand but have been put off because you’ve heard stories about how hard it is to travel in Asia (and let’s face it we’ve all heard those stories), then you will love this podcast! Because taking a trip to Thailand is easy. Easy peasy. If we can do it, you certainly can.

Five months ago we picked up the little red car from England and drove it around Europe and the UK. And it was bliss. Pure heaven. Brian and I had the time of our lives. Just like Baby and Johnny black vest on the wet log.
But I won’t lie. It’s been a bit stressful. The car thing I mean.
As you might know, this little hatchback wasn’t cheap (nineteen thousand pounds to be exact). She’s a classic, you see. A little red vintage Peugeot 205 GTi that Bri bought for my birthday (let’s not mention the fact that I’ve never even sat behind the effing steering wheel) and those things fetch big bucks. So every time we drove down a bumpy lane, and something went clunk or click or tick or tock, my initial thought was “Oh sh*t. There goes another grand”.
I’m positive like that. I like to look on the bright side.
But I don’t have to worry about that. Not anymore. Because as of yesterday…

I can’t quite believe it. For two years Brian has been secretly planning this mega trip to Europe. And now it’s almost over.
Europe has been every bit as wonderful as we hoped it would be. Just gorgeous.

Nothing is perfect. Without fault, peachy keen, hunky dory.
Not even housesitting.
As much as Brian and I harp on about how wonderful our housesitting experience has been here in Tuscany, Italy (we have been housesitting in Porto Santo Stefano for the summer), there have to be some downsides. Right?
Right.

San Gimignano is a charming medieval hilltop town nestled in the heart of Tuscany, Italy.
It is an absolute must-visit destination for travellers seeking an authentic Italian experience, and in my (humble) opinion, it is one of the most beautiful places in the world.
Known for its well-preserved architecture, picturesque landscapes, and rich cultural heritage, I think San Gimignano is one of the best places to visit in Italy. Why? Because it has it all…
We are currently staying in Tuscany, Italy. In a beautiful seaside town called Porto Santo Stefano.
We are here for six weeks – housesitting (more on that in a minute) and have spent a great deal of time writing about Italy travel tips and creating podcasts and videos about travelling this fabulous country.
So, guess what we did this week?
We drove for two hours to spend the day exploring the quaint, much-talked-about, beautiful town of San Gimignano.
And because we love you…
When we returned home (to our housesit), we made a podcast for you.
To share our very real and honest thoughts on what WE thought of the famous San Giamingnio and whether we thought it was worth the two-hour drive through Tuscany.
But.
Before you listen to this brilliant husband and wife podcast, here are a few facts about San Gimignano in Tuscany and five compelling reasons why you should (perhaps) consider adding San Gimignano to your travel itinerary.
Or not.
