Day 12 of Myths & Mysteries of Sicily: As Above/So Below | Transformation

Live from Sicily! Day 12 of Myths & Mysteries of Sicily: As Above/So Below | Transformation. The town of Salemi (led by Visit Borgo Salemi) displayed to us its rich culture of ritual bread making for San Giuseppe. The Azienda Cucchiara served us an outstanding lunch of products from their farm, including the freshest cannoli ever! Marco guided us through the wild and fascinating Selinunte archeological park, where we closed our journey with a fire ceremony led by my co-host, wellness practitioner Tony Allicino, at the sanctuary of Demeter. And then of course, a farewell dinner.
