Mariam was so kind to us during our stay. She is the epitome of Italian hospitality!
Upon our arrival to her home she brought us a snack and glass of wine to enjoy on the balcony, so that we were able to take a moment to rest before heading in to the city of Florence.
Her home was both beautiful and clean. The location was removed from the tourist section of the city, which provided fun insights into Italian life. We walked absolutely everywhere - many steps, but doable. The home is located near Campo Marte making it easy to come in and out of the city by regional train.
The only downside was that her home is next to a hub for ambulances, so do be sure to bring earplugs. As someone who is not used to city living, I was so glad I did and got a great night’s sleep when I wore them.
Thank you Mariam for hosting us in Florence! We are so thankful for your welcome.
