Lecce, Italy

The old town is hot and dry as we stroll around the historic centre. We saw amazing cathedrals and numerous piazzas, the streets were calm as siesta had just started. In these old towns, it was very difficult to find restaurants open for lunch as most of them close already at 13.00 and re-open again at 19.00. We did find a small cute wine bar and stopped for some antipasti, a plate of delicious salty cold cuts, foccaccia and a glass of chilled wine. I can smell fresh rosemary as I sip on my wine that lingers from the bush behind me. We sit there relaxing with smiles on our faces. Pure happiness.

Emerald green. I’m wearing this light and airy green dress that I’ve already previously described as the perfect summer dress, because of its ease. The colour is catchy and vibrant and can take on heat! Black sunnies, an easy clutch and comfortable sandals and I am good to go!
