We’re in the small town of Sutrio, which counts 1200 inhabitants right in the heart of Carnia, Friuli-Venezia Giulia. This village is part of the Borghi autentici d’Italia association, and it’s highly probable that it is also one of the oldest human settlements in all of Carnia. As popular tradition wants it (and remembers it),…
In 2018 I first told you about this incredible experience (in this article), and I wanted to relive it a few days ago. I am in Millstätter See, a few hours’ drive from Trieste. Here, in this incredible and enchanting landscape, between the mountains and a lake, you’ll find one of the “Quelle I Sorgente”…
You can get here without passing on the Austrian highway, without a Slovenian vignette and by bypassing the Carnic Alps from Forni Avoltri. A two-hour and forty-minute drive from Trieste separates you from an unequalled little place, enjoyed by Germans, Austrians, and Italians alike! We’re in the Lesachtal valley (Lesna dolina in Slovenian): it’s an…
On January 16th, 2016, I published in my blog my very first article dedicated to this green paradise. Today, looking back at those pictures, I realize how much it has changed, if not further improved (and it was already starting from a very good starting point!). The statues have been restored and the Karst Vegetation…
It has been a couple of years since my last trip exploring Croatia with my friends at Croatia Full of Life. Why yes, Covid really did slow us down… but it didn’t stop us completely! This time the car stopped in Pula, just two hours from Trieste. Besides, let’s face it, without having to stop…
We are only two hours away from Trieste. After not even five minutes into the highway, leaving behind the Natisone Valleys (which I had already introduced you to last summer, more precisely here), and passing through Kobarid and the wonderful Bovec, we arrive in Soča, the place where I’ll pitch my tents for a few…
I don’t know which of the things listed above you like to do, and I couldn’t pick one to do again, having done them all, as each one made me feel different: joy, laughter, tears of emotion, peace and absolute relaxation. It’s maybe best to start at the beginning, so, shall we? It’s early February,…
My first blog article came out way back in January 2015. What did it tell you about? It was precisely about Albero Nascosto! A little place that still is one of the most charming places to stay in the city as of today. We are in a beautiful building from the eighteenth century, in the…
We are in the heart of the city, more precisely at 1, Via San Spiridione, to discover a gem that opened its doors just a few weeks ago. And who could be behind this marvelous and ambitious project if not Walter Gustin himself who, with his 040 Group, counts several venues scattered around the city?…
Autumn is one of the best seasons to admire the magic of falling foliage and to enjoy the peace just over two and a half hours from Trieste. Today I’ll take you to the shores of Lake Faaker See in Carinthia. This time I’m a guest at Karnerhof’s, a facility that has renovated its wellness…
