Learn about the mysterious Tuscans and how they life their lives in Tuscany, Italy.

A true Tuscan is a campanilista - a localist peacock-proud of his or her region, town, village or district! This campanilismo can contribute to the disdain of other, neighboring places and culminates in inter-city soccer matches.

Tuscans tend to remain in the same location throughout their lives Within the distance of just a few kilometers, villages have differing holiday traditions, food specialties and speech cadences.  Yet all Tuscans are united in their pride for their country, in their compassion, in their creative expressions, in their curiosity and willingness to learn, and in their unique philosophy of life.
