I have been told by Pauline to introduce myself here! I have been a member of this forum for many, many years but lost track of it along the way. We are retired Americans, have lived in Paris for 6 months and owned a house in SW France for 7 years, and have slow-traveled to Italy numerous times. We are finally getting back to Italy this September/October to revisit our favorite spot in Tuscany and find some new ones in Puglia. We prefer to base ourselves in an apartment, do a lot of our own cooking so as to enjoy the regional food, and do day trips. In Puglia we'll be staying in Locorotondo (because I prefer small towns) and hope to travel the area by bus or train.
