traveling Europe on a Budget
Puglia is still a relatively unknown region in the south of Italy that is absolutely worth a visit. The most famous town is Alberobello with its trulli houses. But the beaches and coastal towns are also more than worth a visit. We spent 4 nights here in June and therefore chose two different accommodations. One in Alberobello, to explore the Trullis and Matera & the other one on the coast in Polignano a Mare – both of them I can absolutely recommend!
White beaches, turquoise crystal-clear water, secluded bays and quaint villages. Calabria is the southernmost region of the mainland of Italy and for sure one of the most beautiful ones. The region is already a popular holiday destination among the locals, but it is still relatively unknown among foreign tourists. Calabria not only has a lot to offer in terms of bathing, but also culinary delights and is therefore perfect for a relaxing holiday to enjoy the typical southern Italian flair!
The Cinque Terre are the 5 coastal villages of Riomaggiore, Manarola, Corniglia, Vernazza & Monterosso al Mare on the Italian Riviera. They are known for their colorful houses and terraced vineyards on the steep slopes. There is a hiking trail called ‘Sentiero Azzurro’ that connects the villages and offers beautiful panoramic views over the coast.
