Siracusa (or Syracuse, as it is still often referred as in English) is a beautiful town, with plenty to see for at least a couple of days. This town is a fine cultural destination and very significant in developing the Mediterranean culture for over three millennia, which is why it is recognized by UNESCO's heritage list.

I could have chosen to live in a big city, but I really wanted to live somewhere away from the chaos that a big city has, but be near enough where I can drive to it. I wanted a small coastal town, with the essentials, which to me is a few bar options, some restaurants, grocery store and a bakery. Well, I found it and it and it puts me in the middle of two cool cities, Syracuse and Catania. Brucoli is the town I will be calling home for a while and I would love to share this hidden coastal pearl with you.

I still haven't fully settled in, but thanks to a friend who has already been living here for a while, and who offered me his second car to use until mine gets here from the US. Due to his kindness, I had my first taste of exploring the charming island of Sicily. In this case, the wonderful city of Catania

This quirky attraction is just about 45 minutes from the Las Vegas strip and its a popular, but desolate, tourist destination that attracts many photographers, adventurers, and music video directors. If you are planning a trip to the Hoover Dam, it is not a bad idea to add this to your itinerary.

Being stationed at Aviano Air Base, Italy placed me in a position that made traveling very accessible. About two-hour drive north, you can make it to Austria, two hours east, easily puts you in Slovenia or Croatia. Two-hour drive in other directions puts you into some beautiful places within Italy. What about those weekends when you are off-duty and you want to keep it somewhat local? Well, I might have a spot for you.

Sequoia National Park is named after on the largest tree species on the planet and it is home to the United States highest peaks. Neighboring Kings Canyon lays just to the north, Plunging 2000 feet deeper into the Earth than Arizona's Grand Canyon.
Yet, despite their differences the two parks have much in common. Their valleys have been shaped by the same snow-fed cascades of the Central Sierra Nevada. While from their soils rise giant sequoias some of which first put down roots 3,000 years ago, long before the rise of the Roman Empire.

<p>Traveling is a fantastic self-development tool. It removes you from the values of your culture and shows you that another society can live with entirely different values and functions [and not hate themselves].</p>
