January 2, 2023 In Sicily

The Lighthouse At Capo Zafferano

Some days I just have to post a photo of something that makes me feel good. Like this photo of “la mia terra,” the land from where my grandparents came. I’m looking forward to being back here at Capo Zafferano in a few weeks! Yes, you too, can enjoy the views. Join me in Sicily…

Jump To Find The Treasures In Sicily

Ciao from Sicily! It feels so good to be on the sea where my ancestors fished for centuries. It’s healing. It’s inspiring. This morning, as I was snorkeling over Le Formiche, an underwater rock formation near Porticello, Sicily where my grandfather grew up, I thought about the guts it takes to emigrate and start a…

Swimming And Snorkeling Off The Boat In Sicily

After you enjoyed a relaxed Sunday morning with a leisurely breakfast, if we were in Sicily, you would have seen this outstanding coastline at Capo Zafferano during a boat excursion with Skipper Vincenzo. You would have had the opportunity for swimming and snorkeling off the boat, where you would have swam in the turquoise Tyrrhenian…

Morning Light In Porticello, Sicily

Last night I had a dream that I was staying here in Porticello, my grandfather’s fishing village. Last year when I was staying here in an apartment, I delighted in waking up early and walking through the port to see the light on Monte Catalfano and Capo Zafferano and the fisherman and boat repairmen doing…

The Capo Zafferano Lighthouse Lights The Way

The lighthouse at Capo Zafferano, Santa Flavia, Sicily was built in 1884. After years of vandalism and neglect, it is being restored. It lights the way along the rugged Tyrrhenian Sea coast for the fisherman of Porticello and Aspra.
