Tuscany, Italy
Hardly original, but the classic dolce vita destination has lost none of its charm. All the glories of the Renaissance and ancient Rome within a short drive, against a backdrop of cypress-studded hills. Once they’re cultured out for the day, residents linger over plates of boar salami and long wine-lists. After all, it is the vineyards of “Chiantishire”, almost as much as its medieval buildings, that give the region its distinctive character.
