Members of BMB Active spent a wonderful week exploring Tuscany and the surrounding areas.

Arrivederci Tuscany

Ballinafid Multyfarnham Bunbrosna Active (BMB Active)

A strong contingent from BMB Active recently enjoyed a week-long adventure in Tuscany, visiting Florence, Siena, Pienza, and other inspiring locations. The health benefits of experiencing a different culture, hearing a new language, and socialising with new people all contribute to vitality and enhanced wellbeing. Grazie to those who made this opportunity possible!
