Daily Sketch No.126 Barn near Nebbunella, Barga, Tuscany

A few minutes drive south of Barga is the little hamlet of Nebbunella. Very rural with working farms, old men chugging around in Apes (3 wheeled vehicles) farming the land, their wives inside cooking and cleaning. This is rural Italy. The barn featured is typical of the area, slatted brick windows, no glass just air holes created by the bricks. If you bought this property and renovated you would have to keep these which would make the inside of your house very dark indeed!
