ITALIAN THERMAL SPA CLUB: A MAP TO TAKING THE WATERS IN UMBRIA AND TUSCANY.
Italy's thermal spas, particularly in the regions of Umbria and Tuscany, provide a historical journey of rejuvenation and relaxation. Rooted in the ancient practices of the Romans and Etruscans, these spas use the therapeutic power of thermal waters to achieve physical, mental, and spiritual wellness. Offering a balance between modern amenities and nature's healing, the spas provide a unique opportunity to experience 'la bella figura', the Italian concept of a beautiful life that intertwines well-being and lifestyle.

But standing in that aisle in the heart of Umbria, I had an epiphany: my pasta knowledge was as flat as a lasagna sheet! There was a whole pasta-verse of bizarre shapes waiting to be discovered.
