Travelogue: Italia Days // Cinque Terre I
I don't know what sparked it, but all of a sudden on a random Thursday night, I miss Cinque Terre so much.
It has been almost two years since my trip to that Italian Riviera, and I am ashamed to say that I haven't shared a single photo of our wonderful days there yet. I've stopped trying to come up with excuses for myself - I know everyone's busy and I am not the only one - so I will only continue trying to update this space with photos that I really love, so as to document bits and pieces of my travels that I never want to forget.
You see, I am the typical "wanderluster" who believes in spending on experiences. Traveling is my biggest reward, and every time I take a trip, it recharges my soul and makes me feel a lot more inspired.
Cinque Terre was one of the few Italian towns I ticked off my bucket list; photographs sure do not justify the beauty of the gorgeous towns. Every one is so different in its own distinctive ways, and Vernazza and Monterosso were my favourites. We were greeted by amazing sunsets daily when we were there, and the spellbindingly beautiful view over the vast ocean is second to none. I still count my blessings every day for having been to that part of Italy, and the sunsets at Manarola is something to remember for always.
I've missed your serenity and solitude, Cinque Terre. You are stunning. So, so stunning. And I want to see you again in summer.

Hey Melody! Just wondering, which part of the year did you go to Italy? I’m looking at the possibility of going to Italy sometime next year, and it’s such a beautiful place to be in based on photos! Any recommendations on where and what’s good in Italy for sights and food?
Hi, Glennda!
I went to several parts actually, and it really depends on the sort of experience you are after. I would say Rome is a must if you haven’t been to Italy before, and Milan is absolutely good for shopping. Venice is enchanting & is one of those “bucket list” places, while Florence is romantic in different ways.
Oh man I just saw your reply – have been so swamped with work too of late. Thanks a million! Yea my partner was also telling me how beautiful Italy is too when he went there a few years back. Will bear your tips in mind!
