On Wednesday, the 3rd of June, Italy's lockdown finally ended. It lasted almost three months, and was one of the world's most stringent. For two months we couldn't go more than 200 meters from our homes, except for strict necessity. It was especially difficult for people living alone, and for people forced to live with people they didn't get along... Read More

My family will be in Florence on Christmas Eve and Christmas day. I would like to make dining reservations for Christmas Day at least.
