Palermo dreaming

Written by 30 July 2010 3 Comments

Sicily is great. And I’m not just saying that because so far no one tried to steal anything from me. I found a great hostel where I’ve been meeting tons of nice people (Casa di Amici, more on that soon), have taken day trips to stunning beach towns, visited catacombs and of course had an overload of the local specialities which happen to be all sweet. Cannolis, brioches, gelati – whatever your carb-craving heart desires. It’s impossible to stay skinny in Sicily so it’s probably for the better that tonight i’ll hop on the overnight ferry to Naples from where I will return to Germany where I will swap my daily pizza and gelato diet for salad and mineral water.

Since I don’t have a camera anymore, I’ve been taking pictures with my Iphone using the very fantastic Hipstamatic Iphone app. I highly recommend you try it. Here’s my bit of Sicilian panorama…

    Hi Katja, we are glad you visited Sicily. It was a pity you did not visit the south est, which is considered the most beautiful part of the insland . According to Lonely Planet the baroque side of Sicily is the top italian destination of 2012. The city not to miss is Scicli which was inscribed on World Heritage List in 2001.
    Have fun.
    Giovanni
