About Us – Jan Dickinson

I live in Sydney Australia. I have lived between Australia & Italy for twenty five years & I am delighted to share my knowledge of Italy in helping you with trip-planning and all aspects of your holidays, to make your trip special. This is part of our service at no extra charge.

After years of renting apartments for holidays in Florence, my dear friend Josie & I bought this apartment in 2000 because we had fallen in love with Florence over those years & finally realised our dream to live a Florentine life. Over this time we have been thrilled to share the feeling of being a Florentine with our guests, who come back time & again. Some of our guests come every year & many truly feel it is theirs too. Some of the things I love most about the apartment are: the sense of belonging – when the tourists go home at night the city is yours. I love being able to put my head out the bedroom window, look to the right & see Cosimo de Medici on his great charger, in Piazza della Signoria. I love Daniela’s glorious fruit shop right at our door.
