🇬🇧 "Más bonita que la flor del higo pico" ( 🇬🇧 "Más bonita que la flor del higo pico" (more beautiful than a prickly pear flower) is a typical compliment from the Canary Islands. Hiking from Masca to its beach, you encounter a rich vegetation of palm trees, sugar canes, aloe and, of course, plenty of prickly pears.🌵 What is more beautiful, the view or the flower? 🌸
🇮🇹 "Más bonita que la flor del higo pico" (più bella del fiore del fico d'india) è un complimento tipico delle Isole Canarie. Durante la discesa da Masca alla sua spiaggia si incontra una ricca vegetazione, fatta di palme, canne da zucchero, aloe e l'immancabile fico d'india! 🌵 Cos'è più bello, il panorama o il fiore del fico d'india? 🌼

🇬🇧 the Spanish town of Cuenca is a little je 🇬🇧 the Spanish town of Cuenca is a little jewel in central Spain. The old medieval city center is perched on the top of the hill, with narrow cobbled streets and steep stairs. The highlights are the "hanging houses", known since the XVI century. There are only a couple still standing, but their balconies suspended 70 meters  over the cliff are truly impressive! 
🇮🇹 La cittadina di Cuenca è un vero gioiello nel centro della Spagna. L'antico centro storico medievale è arroccato sulla collina, con stradine ciotolate e ride scalinate. L'attrazione principale sono le "case sospese", conosciute fin dal XVI secolo. Me rimangono solamente un paio ancora in piedi, ma i loro balconi sospesi a 70 metri sullo strapiombo sono davvero impressionanti!

One of the most iconic and bizarre views is the lava flow cutting a road. On the left side, a couple of houses were spared. On the other side of the lava flow now lies a sea of black rocks.

Una delle cose più impressionanti, è una strada attraversata dal flusso di lava. Sulla sinistra, alcune case si sono salvate. Oltre il flusso di lava c'è solo un mare di pietre nere.

🇬🇧 What better excuse to visit a new place w 🇬🇧 What better excuse to visit a new place when friends are around? I started off this year visiting friends on holiday. They came from North Europe, looking for some nice weather. I came from "the next Island", on a day trip 😁 And the occasion got me to a all-inclusive hotel experience, which I never do, because it's not my favourite way of travelling. I  must confess that free food and drinks all day long is quite a treat 😂 The place was also really, really cute. Quite a start for 2025! Cheers to friends, travels and new experiences! 🥂 

🇮🇹 Quale scusa migliore per visitare un posto nuovo che andate a trovare degli amici? Ho iniziato l'anno visitando amici del nord Europa in vacanza alle Canarie in cerca di sole. Io, invece, sono solo saltata da un'isola all'altra in giornata 😃 l'occasione mi ha fatto provare brevemente l'emozione del "all inclusive", che è un tipo di alloggio che non prenoto mai, perché si addice poco al mio stile di viaggio. Confesso che godere di cibo e bevande senza limiti per un giorno non è stato male! 😂 Il posto era anche molto carino. Tutto sommato, una giornata diversa e sfiziosa! Un brindisi agli amici, ai viaggi e alle nuove esperienze!🥂

🇬🇧 Note for 2025: taking pictures is beautif 🇬🇧 Note for 2025: taking pictures is beautiful, sharing them is better! Talking with old friends during these past Christmas holidays, some pictures of a trip to Normandy were shown around. I can see something recurrent about myself! 😅 But where are those pictures I was taking? I better dig them out of my HD because they hold precious memories I probably have half forgotten! 📸 Do you print out your best photographs?
🇮🇹 Promemoria per l'anno nuovo: fare foto è bello, condividerle è meglio! Parlando con vecchi amici durante le vacanze di Natale, sono saltate fuori delle foto di un viaggio in Normandia di qualche anno fa. Ho trovato un tema ricorrente che mi riguarda! 😁 Ma dove sono finite quelle foto? Devi andartene a ripescare nei mie archivi, perché contengono ricordi preziosi che ho quasi dimenticato! Voi stampate le vostre foto più belle? 🖼️
