Picture of L'Île-Rousse
Caption: Île Rousse Enjoy the season
Caption: Straddling a long, sandy curve of coastline, and backed by maquis-cloaked mountains, the attractive little beach town of Île Rousse fills up in summer with sun-worshippers and holidaying yachties. Founded by Pascal Paoli in 1758, hoping to eclipse the Genoese-ruled port of Calvi, it has finally achieved that goal; unlike Île Rousse, Calvi no longer has ferry service from the mainland. The ferry port is just north of the centre, over a causeway on the tiny Île de la Pietra, whose russet colour gave Île Rousse its name.

Caption: Île Rousse Perhaps this is what this season is all about: trusting in the unknowns, finding gold in the little things, trading fear of what’s certain for freedom to thrive within it, to know that by grace, there is room to truly live within this space, and to laugh and to make art even after all that fell apart, and courageously pursue joy, even when you don’t know what will happen. And not because you’re careless, but because you’re grateful, and you are mindfully choosing to be faithful, even in the waiting
