after your wonderful description about your morning visits near the sea, eating at your favorite restaurants, and all the other wonderful details that allow me to share your visit!

I have never heard of UNTOURS. But I am copying your post, not only for the beautiful content but also for the valuable advice. No, the tours do not go out from Puerto Rico. But I can select either Miami or NewYork to take the tour from either of these cities.

I had read a lot about ETRUSCANS & their impact in Italian civilization. The ETRUSCANS were the first civilization living in Tuscany & there are multiple inherited traits in architecture, character, look of the people, & even in food, that are attributted to their ETRUSCAN ancestors. The Etruscans were so independent & brave. Even their language is the only language worldwide that had not been deciphered yet. The anthropologists & scientists say that there is not a certain assumption as to from where they originally came to Tuscany.

One of the things that I like best of this civilization is that they were sybarites. Their
way of living was mainly to experiment all kinds of pleasant things, sometimes in excesses. They were artists & their sculptures & other beautiful Amphoras, etc... are still shown in their museums. There is no example of their music because they wrote in animal skins or papyrus, not in stone.

Well I apologize for this small unsolicited lecture. I hope that you will have the chance to read on the ETRUSCANS. Then, when you arrive in Tuscany, you will feel specially at home.

I greatly appreciate your advice & information & I will enter the site of Untours in order to obtain further information regarding language & the possibility of a lady traveling alone to such a faraway destiny. Thanks dear friend & I hope that you will enjoy your trip.

Your friend,

Gladys/PR
