I am fond of this little, relatively unknown, corner of Italy which is the Province of Pesaro and Urbino (land of Raphael and Gioachino Rossini) – the northern Province of a beautiful region called ‘Marche’ (we say that ‘Marche’ is the whole Italy in just one region).
I am sharing with you the beauty that this land has to offer, hoping that one day you may decide to stop here, maybe on your way from Rome to Venice, or – even better – you may decide you want to spend your entire holiday in the Marche.
We Went on a trip to the Cesane Woods, we found many beautiful villages on the way (among which Mombaroccio and Isola del Piano), beautiful Autumn views on the hills and the valleys, a sanctuary, churches, olive trees, vineyards, farmers’ houses made of brick… we even met a flock of sheep right in the middle of the roadway! Then, finally, our destination: the Agritourism ‘Locanda Girolomoni’ where we enjoyed an Italian organic lunch (zucchini pizza, polenta – maize porridge – with lentils and sausage, home baked bread with sunflower seeds, tiramisu).
No better words than pictures speaking for themselves sometimes.
That’s life, here, in the Marche.
