Meeting Alessandra Federici in Cortona

I met Alessandra last October at her store in Piazza Signorelli called Il Girasole. She's well known in town. A smiling shop keeper nearby pointed across the square to where she was standing in the entrance of her store.

If I had longer on my upcoming trip to Italy - I would have liked to get an apartment for a week, in Cortona. So much to do, so much to see... such a special place.
