Why Florence? And, "Why Florence again and again?" people ask me. This blog will attempt to explore that question. Along the way I hope to share how I stay connected to my adopted city when I'm not there. Ideally, I would be in Tuscany every spring, every fall.

Time to Say Goodbye . . .
. . . is the English title of one of Sarah Brightman's more popular songs. I prefer the Italian title, "Con te Partiro`" which if translated directly, means "I will depart with you." Either way, this song and others on Brightman's album, "Classics," remind me of Florence. One of the charming things about my favorite city is the number of street performers in public spaces. Very often there is someone doing the Brightman songs outside the Uffizi or in Piazza della Repubblica. Do you have songs that remind you of specific cities?
