{Sorrento and the Amalfi Coast}

Italy has a lot of beautiful places to visit and I don't mean only Florence and the Tuscany country side, Rome or Venice. From North to South, East to West, Italy is full of treasures to discover!

Most of you already know Sorrento and the Amalfi coast.

Some good reasons to choose Sorrento and the South instead of the usual tourist destinations (not that Sorrento, Positano or Capri are unknown!) are:
- the sun, beautiful beaches, blue sea and unisìque landscapes
- good food, good wine... pasta, pizza, mozzarella, oil, basil, lemon (limoncello)...
- Sorrento has a strategic position... in less than 1 hour you can reach Pompei, Vesuvio, Naples, Amalfi Coast, capri and Ischia
- the people is very friendly and will treat you as member of their family. They are open and charmant! they scream, talk out loud, move their hands while speaking!
- you will enjoy the italian Dolce vita...
- it's the perfect destination for relaxing holidays...In the south time is so slow...
- the perfect place for shopping... artisan sandals and clothes. Whatever you are looking fpr you will find it in Sorrento!
- and many other reasons that you will find by yourself once you get there!

{Provence getaway}



Alegria is THE perfect getaway. I love Provence and the Cote d'Azur, and this is a perfect place where to go for a weekend or more.
From the pictures and the web site I can only imagine how beautiful that place can be. I can feel the intimacy and charm of each "chambre d'hôtes".
All this in a characteristic manor in the midst of a vast domain of silvergreen olive trees where you yourself can determine your rhythm of the day.
