Liguria

A Mediterranean jewel and a long walk in the sun: the memory of this stripe of Italy is a kaleidoscope of marine flashes of rocks coloured with the sunny yellow of the brooms, of wild flowers and of salty wind rustling in the summer shadows of the Genoese palaces, streaked with black and white. An afternoon of light, along the trails of the Cinque Terre, and the paths of the ancient maritime republic. And you walk ,and walk: steep streets that open up into unexpected squares, or reveal far-reaching panoramas that, from the height of the city walls, broaden out onto the sea. And you walk on earthy trails: joy, clean air, sun, perfumes, unknown nature. And at the end, a sublime dish of trenette with pesto!
