Now I would like to present to you, the villa "San Girolamo". It's located in Toscany, near Florence on a hill on the countryside. It kind of got destroyed in the war so some parts of it are ruins. The chapel next to the villa is completely destroyed, so are some rooms but that also makes the buildling more interesting because you can look outside from almost every room because a lot of walls hadbeen blown up during the 2nd world war. The villa had first been a nunnery, then got bombed by the allies because they wanted to get the germans out of there. After that it has been used as a war hospital. From the outside it doesn't seem so "luxurous".
There is one room in the first floor though that is the biggest room in the house and it isn't destroyed. It has a big bed in it and it also has some other furniture.
The villa has a really nice but wet library, with a lot of books and a large hole in the wall.
You can enter the villa through the kitchen which has a table in there.
The garden is nice to spend time in. There are orchards, vegetables and flowers. Also there is a tent, a fountain and a statue.
Have fun at "San Girolamo", guys!

Hey Lilli!
ReplyDeleteYour Travel Report is very short and there are a lot of informations about the rooms missing.
For example the painted walls in the biggest room or the portrait level with a large hole in the library.
Additional I can´t understand your third sentence, what does it mean "It kind of got destroyed"??
When I must be honestly, I wouldn´t inspect the villa after your report..sorry, but there are so many facts missing and it sounds so, that you don´t like the villa at all.
Greetings :)
