Ciao!
It's Katia your host! I live on the beautiful island of Sicily, in Balestrate to be exact, a small town by the sea, nicknamed “Il Paese dei Tramonti” (The Town of Sunsets).
5 things I can’t live without? The sun, delicious food, my dog, music and dark chocolate! Travelling is another thing I love and I would be happy to tell you about my favourite travel destinations on my terrace at sunset. I'm always happy to help if you have any questions or need tips during your visit. Looking forward to making your stay in Sicily enjoyable!
