La Dolce Vita, the sweet life, is the perfect expression for a holiday in Italy.
Italy is as sweet as the sweetest and beyond relaxed, not to mention a cuisine to tempt the strongest of souls. We have moved to another coastal location to join friends for a few days in their villa. Life is lazy with the faint hint of a breeze, the lapping waves of the Mediterranean and the kiss of sunshine all day long. How to ever come back to earth is my only niggling thought" The days pass in a blink as I manage my self-induced coma of delicious food and wonderful friendship.
Slim Aarons photographs of La Dolce Vita speak a thousand words and more. We could step straight into these images and feel right at home. There is something still ‘untouched’ about the seaside in Italy compared to other European coastlines and even though millions of visitors pass through each year it remains relatively unspoilt.
