Under the Tuscan Sun

This post is actually left over from my

Week of Italia

.

(

I am so bad at following through with plans/completing things!

)

Which is silly, because of all the movies set in Italy, this is by far my favorite. I defy you to watch this movie and not want to movie to Tuscany and buy a villa. It's so beautiful.

The story reminds me a lot of

Eat Pray Love

, in that a woman fresh from divorce goes to Italy to "find herself" and what-not. She enjoys the country, has some adventures, has some love, has some heartbreak, and in the end lives happily ever after. In Tuscany. Jealous, much?

I watched this again last night

(I'm home sick with a throat infection, unable to speak, so I thought watching some beautiful Italy movies would cheer me up)

and it genuinely makes me want to move to Italy and just... hang out. I mean, as long as I have high-speed internet, I could live very happily in a run-down villa in the middle of nowhere Tuscany.
