This was my first time using Air B&B, so I wasn’t sure what to expect. I was welcomed by Francesca and her family and pup into their unbelievably stylish and beautiful home on a scorching hot day in Florence. I’m sure I was a dripping mess, and we all chatted while I re-hydrated. This home looked like a movie set from a fantastical movie, filled with fascinating objects, but never feeling cluttered, with the sound of French music from the 1930s playing. I saw them all again the next morning where I was provided coffee and breakfast, seated across from the window that looked out onto a beautiful expansive back garden. An exemplary first experience—thank you!
