Choosing Florence as the “main character” of the second guide came naturally—rooted in the travel memories of Eszter and Ákos, our wonderful project manager–designer couple. Kata began exploring the city in January and has returned many times since, working on the text between two travel sessions.

After endless walks and research, countless tasting sessions, long conversations with locals, and interviews with the key figures featured in the book, we can truly say—straight from the heart—that we are ready to share with you our unique impressions and carefully curated ‘what and where’ selection for Firenze.
