What a perfect experience this was. We met this guy and his dog, third generation truffle hunters. I think we kinda knew what we would do, search a forest and let the dog go to work. This was so much more, the guy is just a very kind and wonderful person, so much fun to be around, loves what he does, that dog loves him so much. It was truly a blessing to get to spend time with them. Oh and we found some truffles that we tried later that evening. Wonderful experience.
