What to See in Western Sicily

April 1, 2025 by Angela Savino2 Comments

Favignana

Cefalù Cefalù is not exactly on the western coast of Sicily, but it's not too far from it, and it would be a shame not to visit. So, I decided to include it in the must-see places of western Sicily.

Imsouane, Surfing in the Winter Sun

March 20, 2025 by Rosie McCannLeave a Comment

The bay gets busy in Imsouane.

Baguio: The City of Mists

March 15, 2025 by Junfil OlarteLeave a Comment

As our bus wound its way up the serpentine roads of Kennon Road, the transformation was gradual, yet unmistakable. The humid lowland air of the Philippines gave way to an increasingly cool mountain breeze, while the tropical vegetation slowly morphed into stands of towering pine trees. We were ascending to Baguio City, the Summer Capital of the Philippines, perched 5,200 feet above sea level in the Cordillera mountain range of northern … [Read more...]
