Beautiful review of your trip. I have toured the east of Sicily from North to South. Loved every minute of it. This article has brought it all back. Thanks 🙏👍

Thanks so much! Glad it could bring back that memory for you! I’d love to do the east coast some day too

Loved the description of your summer in Sardegna— barefoot nutella and bathing suits. So special. Those summer memories can be so visceral. I remember one in Sicily/ Cefalu when I was 18. We were renting this small villa on the Tyrrhenian Sea, and I was sipping a Coca Cola/ reading a magazine. Our neighbors were diving at dusk for octopus (successfully) and threw one on the grill right on the beach and cracked open a bottle of Cataratto/ offered me a glass. I can still visualize the moment. I felt infinitely cooler just being near them!

What a memory!!! That sounds so dreamy, and I’m sure it’s still something you can smell and feel when you think back 🐙

Sicily is my favorite place on earth. Spent the last two summers living in Forza d’Agro. Thanks for your description and pictures.
