Sicily, from a Catania base

Became our go-to spot for dinner at night.

Up onto the ash slopes and craters cold and windy but nice

Day trip up to Taormina Corso Umberto, ceramic-tiled lanes and big views down to the sea.

Hike down into the canyon to the river pools super cold and incredible, better than the sea.

sila was totaly dehidrated and heat schoked but the water in the end healed everything

the baroque four corners where the old city's two main streets cross.

The perfect coffee place. Loved the guy running it solo also sells pots and tools handmade by the street's craftsmen, mostly sold out.

Palermo's botanical garden giant cacti in the glasshouses, frangipani and shady avenues.

Dinner here was super nice pasta alla Norma, the famous Sicilian spaghetti with eggplant.
