This is another installment of a series which intends to portray a city in its details, rather than its landmarks. ‘Seguo il Fiume’
After my work with the Italian National Archive of Diaries in Pieve Santo Stefano, Arezzo, it was a natural thing to seek out the Italian American Museum while I was in NYC in March.
One of the blessings of living in Tuscany is being able to play host to all my friends from around the world. Not only do they get to experience a little slice of my life here, but they see beauty which is truly unique to the region. Last week, my friend and singer/songwriter Ashleigh Auckland stayed in my Tuscan apartment, and one of the ‘once in a lifetime’ experiences was to record and film this cover of City and Colour’s “Little Hell”. We borrowed a guitar, recorded at my house and filmed near my house at once of my favourite places, The Temple of Saint Maria of the Colledestro.
