Michael & Peggy Hunt moved from Pembrokeshire to Italy two years ago.
They now live on the Tuscan / Umbrian border in Locanda Delle Rose among 300 olive trees, enquiring neighbours and over-familiar wildlife.
"Oddly, it is not so different from Pembrokeshire at all, " they say. "We have felt at home from the very beginning."

Wet and windy but spring, almost summer, at times with the lizards, butterflies and trees greening up over night. The events season began with the free airshows at the old grass airfield.
