Why I want to go to this place
As i became aware of this place, i instantly felt harmony – or, how harmony is connecting all the dots in the Universe. This is the place for capturing the beauty, time, – felicity.
I would love to be there.
I would love to be there with those whom i love,
to be stunned by how good life can feel.
The bond to different gems under the sun, different captivating places is resembling, yet different in nuances. I feel close to Amalfi thinking about Amalfi seen through the eyes of the travellers of past. The ones who found themselves in between Salerno and Sorrento, wrote a book, composed an opera, painted a painting, left a small marking from the day they went to St. Andrew`s cathedral, walked through bougainvillea`s, up the narrow stairs by a white house, drank limoncello from an icecold bottle. Those notes, they open Amalfi for me.
Cinque Terra feels somehow more familiar, probably because of the kaleidoscopic range of colors – or because i went to Cinque Terra – in my mind – earlier than i realised there was a similar graceful white town in Campania.
I pondered writing this if something in me would be different, if i would have been born elsewhere. By a blue sea, in a white house surrounded by pink flowers.
The distant calling, – yet, i still feel that i prefer to be a guest who can return, in the spring, to the white house surrounded by pink flowers.
Perhaps we do choose the home, for ourselves? -
a few homes, for our soul.
For the springs, for the autumns.

How this place changed my life
There is perhaps no other spectacle on earth that can rival the beauty and tranquility of this place. It gave me a new outlook on life. Just bieng there allows one to think and be at peace with oneself. It is an amazing place, with amazing views, amazing people, amazing food, and amazing peace. Every day I dream about going back there. Simply put, it was the trip of my lifetime.

Charming in just about every way.
Picnicking with wine and cheese on the beach and wetting your feet in the Tyrrhenian Sea… Could you really ask for more?
If it’s at all possible, if you’re in Italy and have a free day, GO HERE. You won’t regret it.
