Landscapes

...to get lost in

Taken while driving through the Val d'Orcia valley.



Leaving the summer

'...but a brief moment, a lightning instant of give-and-take, just long enough for you to level the camera
and to trap the fleeting prey in your little box'

seeing both, the wonders of the world and the wonders of the life

Cinque Terre

...is named for the five villages of Monterosso, Vernazza, Corniglia, Manarola and Riomaggiore which 
together with the coastline and the surrounding hillsides are all part of Cinque Terre National Park 
and is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. We took 7 km of stunning coastal path between Corniglia and Monterosso. Unfortunatelly, Via del'Amore between Riomaggiore and Manarola was closed because of the construction works 
so our first plan to walk all 9 km of trails failed.

The small villages are old and charming but the walk itself it took my heart away. Two of them actually, 
my hollow muscle that pumps blood (yes, it was too hot with a lot of steps) and my other heart, 
my sparkling and elusive heart that makes all the beautiful reasons for the first, biological one.
The heart that makes me grateful for the glittering sea, the ancient olive trees, the beautiful views, 
that brings me peace and makes me feel I can make it all better. 
Cinque Terre, it is really that kind of place.
