About This Lister

This apartment is our family home in Lucca, and we spend a significant amount of time here throughout the year.

I’m a food professional and nutritionist, and my husband is an interior designer. We split our time between the Catskills, NYC, and Tuscany.

Because this is a personal family apartment, it’s important to us that guests respect the space and enjoy it as a true home rather than a short-term rental.
