This is a trip report of our visit to Pisa, 3 days in Florence and 1 day in Siena in late Sept / Early Oct. We are a couple in our mid-twenties. I have been to Rome but nowhere else in Italy. My favorite part of Rome was Trastavere and Florence + Siena reminded me of that same chill feeling. Florence has a great vibe, great food and just the right amount of museum-visiting for us. I think our itinerary was perfect and right off the bat we were experiencing what I love about Italy so much, il dolce far niente (the sweetness of doing nothing).
Hope you enjoy this and find it helpful.

Very nice photographs. Thanks for posting!
Lovely report...very helpful. Do post for remainder of your trip.
I enjoyed your report, as my wife and i have visited Florence twice and are returning this year in September. What B&B did you stay at in Florence? We are looking for accommodations and we usually do B&B's.
It appears from their map it's Residenza Il Villino which is further out than most people would select.
