Caption: Cinque Terre Postcards from Northern Italy
Picture
Caption: Recently I travelled to Italy and spent the last 2 days of my trip in Cinque Terre ~ literally meaning "five lands". 5 coastal villages full of everything beautiful and fun: cobbled streets, little cafès, crystal waters, mesmerizing sunsets & a rainbow of houses perched on the most picturesque hills. Turns out postcards are real, so if you're ready to live inside them for a while... Let's go. Attraversiamo!

Cinque Terre and it was where I called home for two days.

A real charmer, photogenic in every angle for 24 hours a day.
This one-street town has
a small harbor, a castle,
a church by the water,
cobbled streets, little cafès,
a waterfront piazza and fascinating sea views.

Caption: Manarola was where
I hopelessly fell in love with Cinque Terre.
I basically spent
one evening doing nothing but watching
(oh well, and shooting) the sunset for two hours ~ with a face like this -> 😍
