postcard from tuscany

Best wishes from the tarot garden in the south of the tuscany, where I spent with my family a very pleasant afternoon. The tarot garden has been created about 15 years ago by Nikki de St Phalle, a American-Swiss Artist. Every sculpture shows a card of the tarot-game. The one on the picture shows the queen. You can enter in some sculptures, so you can in the one on the picture. The queen has given home to nikki while her work in the garden. You find a kitchen, a bathroom, a livingroom and a bedroom in the sculpture. The different shapes and colours were absolutly amazing. Even if you aren't keen on art you will be fascinated!

Postcard from Sardinia

Hi everyone
This is where I spent my time relaxing in the shade of the veranda. Every morning there was a spectacular sunrise over the sea, turning the dark sky into a vibrant ball of fire. Then the bells began ringing as the sheep made their way through the brush to be fed by the shepherd just on the other side of the fence.

We also ate most of our lunches and dinners here as we enjoyed the peacefulness in between swims and trips into the countryside.

I hope you also had a great time!

Yours
Illya
PS: I'd love to get a postcard from you too!
