Living the dream on our forever terrace! ✨ Today, Andrew and I took a well-deserved lunch break at Palazzo San Benedetto, the historic palazzo we will soon call home. For now, we are still in our rental, splitting our days by coming here to paint, prep, and get everything ready. We enjoyed a lovely lunch featuring some incredibly delicious olive oil given to me by a friend, freshly pressed just a week ago straight from his own olive trees—the absolute perfect fuel for a busy day! Taking a quiet moment together on the terrace, knowing this is our future everyday view, makes all the hard work and paint splatters so worth it. We can't wait to officially move in over the next few weeks! 🏰🌿🥂

Mission Impossible - Palazzo Moving In Date is Close Now. Are We Going To Be Ready Or Is There Still Too Much To Do?

We have been working day and night pretty much since we came back from our holiday in August and although that seems a long time for us to have completed the work to move in, there is still so much to do. With the move in date looming, are we going to be able to do it? Take a look at the state of the place in our latesr video - link in comments. What do you think?

Why we never gave up...

Nestled in the historic village of San Benedetto in Perillis within the L'Aquila province of Abruzzo, the property captivated us. Standing there all those years ago, we could immediately see its future: a beautiful, welcoming home for us, paired with a thriving holiday rental business where guests could experience this timeless Italian charm.

Immersa nello storico borgo di San Benedetto in Perillis, nella provincia dell'Aquila, in Abruzzo, la proprietà ci ha affascinato. Imagginandoci lì, tanti annual fa, abbiamo intuito immediamente il futuro: una casa bellissima e accogliente per noi, abbinata a una fiorente attività di affitti turistici dove gli ospiti potessero vivere questo fascino italiano senza tempo.

We had the absolute pleasure of hosting a wonderful American family of six at our 3-bedroom holiday rental, The Poets' Retreat They visited San Benedetto in Perillis most days to reconnect with their ancestral family roots.

Because they've been following our journey on YouTube, we were thrilled to welcome them and give them a private, behind-the-scenes tour of Palazzo San Benedetto. As if their company wasn't enough, they also brought us the most thoughtful, fabulous gift! 🎁❤️

Meeting our viewers in person and sharing the history of this special place makes every bit of this crazy restoration adventure worth it. Thank you for visiting!

"Grief made him a god." Centuries later, the rain still falls on the beautiful youth of Bithynia. There is something utterly mesmerizing about seeing this close-up in the palazzo courtyard today. 🏛️🖤
