Spiaggia della Contura beach, Tropea, Calabria, Italy — July 23, 2021

All along the aqua coast of the Tyrrhenian Sea, on the ‘toe’ of Italy, in the Calabria region, the weather is fair and the food good. It’s the Italian World down here, mostly locals and Italian tourists; few foreigners and little English spoken. I feel like an outsider. But lingual and cultural differences aside, it seems we are all on the same wavelength and I’m happy to share in on the Italia vibe 🇮🇹

The sea+sunset views are so nice they built all the way to the cliff—and then a bit further! Remarkable these dwellings stood the test of time over the millennia; Italians are definitely amazing engineers!
