What would you do if your national team was playing an important football match and you lived in a country where football (soccer for you Americans) is akin to a religion? Well, I don’t know about you, but me and a couple of friends decided to go out and take pictures, instead of watching the match. What we wanted to …
This land resembles no other place. Sardinia is something else. Enchanting spaces and distances to travel-nothing finished, nothing definitive.

It is just a few kilometers south of Cinque Terre, so it is a perfect destination for those wanting to extend their trip there to the surrounding areas.
