  You don’t need to walk across Italy to find meaning. But it sure doesn’t hurt. 
  Walking Through Tuscany is a memoir about swapping comfort for carafes of wine, trail dust, and a slower kind of travel. What started as a long-distance walk along the Via Francigena turned into something more human—mountains crossed, vineyards wandered, and strangers turned friends. 
  This isn’t a guidebook. It’s the story of what happens when you stop rushing: broken sandals, golden hour moments, and a version of Tuscany you won’t find on a postcard. 
  We thought we were just walking. Turns out, we were writing the story of our lives.
