TOP 3 PORTUGUESE FOOD

May 16, 2014 // 2 Comments

I was in Portugal for few days but I did fall in love with the country, I definitely want to go back and find out more about the culture! The food I tried was very good, I know there ‘ s so much more to try(this is a valid reason to go back) but here’ s my favourite portuguese food so far 🙂 Sono stata in Portogallo per pochi giorni ma sono stati sufficienti per innamorarmi del Paese. Sicuramente ci tornerò perchè sono sicura ci sia ancora molto da vedere! Il cibo è assolutamente buonissimo, non ho provato moltissimi piatti (ecco un’altra ragione per tornarci) ma ecco i miei cibi preferiti per ora : 1. Chouriço This is my favourite food ever, It is so […]

Sintra

April 9, 2014 // 2 Comments

Ok, here’s the thing about Sintra : I found out about this wonderful place looking at my Spanish host mum’s pictures (thanks again Marta). I saw the beautiful colours of the buildings and thought ” I MUST GO THERE”. I was very excited about It but….apparently I wasn’t supposed to see the bright colours 🙁 infact I visited Sintra on a very FOGGY DAY! (I was so mad!!!). Not only It was foggy but It was also raining! Allora, ecco la storia su Sintra: non sapevo dell’esistenza di questo meraviglioso posto finchè non ho visto le foto della mia host mamma spagnola (GRAZIE Marta) , appena ho messo gli occhi sui colori brillanti dei palazzi ho pensato “DEVO ANDARCI”. Bè… a quanto pare non […]

Porto, the birthplace of Port wine – Porto, la città dove viene prodotto il celebre vino Porto

March 27, 2014 // 0 Comments

I went to Porto by bus, I left Ourense (Galicia) quite early in the morning, about 5 am , I then stopped in Vigo to wait for the other bus and eventually got to Porto by 10.30 am. I was so excited, It was a beautiful day and I remember feeling very happy. I was on my own and I was ok, I just loved taking pictures and looking at everything. Sono andata a Porto in autobus, ho lasciato Ourense(Galizia) la mattina presto, più o meno alle 5 e mi sono poi fermata a Vigo per aspettare un altro bus. Alle 10.30 ero già a Porto e ricordo che ero felicissima, la giornata era stupenda e il sole brillava. Ero sola ma mi sentivo bene, […]

Cudillero

March 6, 2014 // 0 Comments

At the end of my journey in Galicia, my host family asked me to make a chart of the places They made me visit… It turned out I really liked Cudillero .Carlos, my host dad, didn’t agree with that at all. He couldn’t understand how I could put Cudillero in one of the first positions. The thing is that I DO LOVE SMALL TOWNS, It might be because I grew up in a very tiny village where there’s nothing but banks and restaurants (no, I am not kidding, Carasco has 3 banks and 6 restaurants, and that’s all We have). I am not saying that I would live in small town but if I’m traveling I’d rather see a cute tiny and distinguishing village instead of […]

Amazing Playa de las Catedrales – Meravigliosa Playa de las Catedrales

March 1, 2014 // 0 Comments

La ” Playa de las Catedrales ” which would be” Beach of the Cathedrals ” is one of the best beaches I have ever seen . It’ s called that because of Its natural archs and caves which can only be seen at low tide . European people usually think that places like this can only be found in Australia or South America but the truth is that We do have wonderful landscapes. I am so glad my Spanish host family made me realize how beautiful Europe is (THANKS Marta & Carlos). La ” Playa de las Catedrales ” , cioè ” Spiaggia delle Cattedrali ” , è una delle più belle spiagge che abbia mai visto. Il suo nome deriva dagli archi naturali creati dalle […]

La Coruña, the glass city – La Coruña, la città di vetro

February 24, 2014 // 0 Comments

This is one of the last cities I have visited in Galicia, I was very curious to see It because It is one of the most visited cities of the region. My Spanish host family took me there and I quite liked It. I think It’s different from all the other places I have seen in Galicia because It is very modern and quite big. There are a lot of clothes shops, restaurants, coffee shops… I’d say You would live there if You’re the ” big city kind of person”. Questa è una delle ultime città che ho visitato in Galizia, ero molto curiosa di vederla perchè è uno dei posti più visitati della regione. Ho raggiunto la città in macchina, insieme alla mia famiglia […]

Amazing Ribeira Sacra in Galicia, Spain – Spettacolare la Ribeira Sacra in Galizia, Spagna

February 16, 2014 // 0 Comments

I love the beach, I love staring at the sea and listening to the sound of the waves, I have always been the kind of beach person BUT I have to say that “Ribeira Sacra” impressed me. Infinite mountains, the river running between the rocks, green everywhere. . . Let’s say It is a pretty good scenary! Io amo il mare, mi piace sedermi sulla spiaggia e ascoltare il rumore delle onde, passerei ore a guardare il mare, sono sempre stata il tipo di persona che preferisce andare in vacanza al mare piuttosto che in montagna. MA devo ammettere che la Ribeira Sacra ha avuto un certo impatto su di me. Infinite montagne, il fiume che scorre tra le rocce e verde ovunque…. Non posso proprio […]

Venice is like eating an entire box of chocolate liqueurs in one go – Venezia è come mangiare un’intera scatola di cioccolatini al liquore in una sola volta

February 12, 2014 // 0 Comments

” Venice is like eating an entire box of chocolate liqueurs in one go. “ (Truman Capota) Venice is the city where You literally can dream with Your eyes opened . As Thomas Mann says ” It’ s half fairy tale and half tourist trap “, It gets to Your heart and It stays forever . Venice is art, art made by men and by nature ; Its sky shows the best sunsets I have ever seen so far . You can do nothing but stare at such a beautiful city. “Venezia è come mangiare un’intera scatola di cioccolatini al liquore in una sola volta.”(Truman Capota) Venezia come ho già scritto è la città dove si può sognare ancora, metà fiaba e metà trappola come dice Thomas […]
