Taormina, The Hill-Top Town You’ll Fall In Love With

on
July 14, 2022

Living in the biggest island in the Mediterranean is giving me a lot of opportunities to explore it. Throughout history, from the Greeks to modern day Italy, Sicily has had high-importance strategically for military operations, economic trade, and control of resources. From ancient times to modern day life it has also been a place to holiday and no other town stands out like Taormina.

On a hill-top not too far away from the strait that divides Sicily from the Italian Peninsula lies a charming city, facing out toward the Ionian Sea from a high, natural terrace. With its Medieval architecture, its ancient Greek soul, and the colors of Mediterranean foliage, Taormina is one of the most beautiful places you could visit in the world. The Greeks and Romans who holidayed in Taormina savoured that very same view, and it continues to be a destination to this day.

on
May 16, 2022

Italy is a country full of truly unique villages in the world. You can find places that are known for their rich history, while others are known just for their particular beauty. In Sicily there is a place that is peculiar and fascinating that is known for its shape. The name of this town is Centuripe.

It is a village that gets its beauty from being perched on five cliffs that are joined together, which gives life to a picturesque man-shape. Known as the "balcony of Sicily", this town has stunning views across to Mount Etna. Centuripe has avoided mass tourism, since It has been on my to-do-list, I will be the visiting tourist to explore this place.

I am on the move exploring Sicily again, searching and exploring to find the best things this Mediterranean island has to offer.

Brucoli, Sicily The Complete Guide To Food and Drinks

on
April 8, 2022
I have been living in Brucoli for six months now and It is officially Spring. With the weather warming up walking into town is easy. This is my first spring here and I am starting to notice that the crowds are growing in the weekends. Parking is getting harder to find as the small roads become congested with vehicles that the visitors are making their own parking spots. Fortunately, the parking situation is not an Issue for me. I can walk into town without a problem, which makes it easy to start exploring more of what this fishing hamlet has to offer. Usually, I am writing about places I have been, but Brucoli’s atmosphere has made me realize that there are some good restaurants that utilize what the sea has to offer and I would like to share some of my favorites.

PERATONER’S PASTRIES NEAR AVIANO WILL MAKE YOU COMEBACK

on
January 26, 2022
Italy has been the country where I have spent the majority of my adult life. Being stationed at Aviano Air Base for 11 years can really make you a local. Not only did I pick up the language, but I learned all the good spots that are popular within the community. Growing up pastries where never my thing, but this place changed my mind and got me hooked.
