The Cinque Terre






I have been dreaming today of the magnificent Cinque Terre on the Italian Riviera. The five villages of Monterosso al Mare, Vernazza, Corniglia, Manarolo and Riomaggiore are interconnected by walking paths, trains and boats and cars cannot reach the villages from the oustide making it feel wonderfully cut off. I visited the area a few years ago and the trip remains vivid in my memory for the incredible beauty of the area and the amazing food, quite simply the best prawn ravioli and pesto pizza I have ever tasted. Here are a few images from my trip including one of the (almost) devoured ravioli!
