The Amalfi Coast
Hey guys! Sorry that I've taken so long to put a new blog post..I've been very busy with my academics. Happy September by the way, autumn is just around the corner! In this post, I'll be taking a different direction from Paris down to the Mediterranean coast to the beautiful Amalfi Coast in southern Italy! I ventured to this incredible area more than a year ago in the summer of 2015 following my trip visiting family and exploring this beautiful country. Like Paris, I stayed in Italy for two weeks and took a weekend trip with family to the Amalfi Coast since I've never been there before. Hope you all enjoy it!
This phenomenonal photo op was taken from the private bus we were taking to our hotel in Sorrento. The steep coastline plummeting to the shimmering blue water and the mountains towering above. It's literally the ideal 360° panoramic view!
This photo is one of my favorites! You could take a glimpse of the Mediterranean and the cruise ship leaving port in the distance. Down below lies a small tight street and to the left and street lie beautiful ancient buildings and a quintessential Italian terrace covered in vines adorned with ornate tables.
Approaching the tiny streets of Sorrento!
Meandering through the streets and little alleyways of Sorrento discovering hidden little corners!
This little street leads to this beautiful church!
Loved this view looking onto the Mediterranean Sea and the mysterious Mount Vesuvius in the distance.
The sunsets on the Amalfi Coast are just phenomenal!
This was taken the next morning before departing on a ferry that would take us to the beautiful towns of Positano and Amalfi! There were absolutely no clouds in sight!
View before arriving in Positano!
Bevenuti a Positano! This is one of the most famous little towns on the Amalfi Coast known for its stairs and plummeting mountainside.
The beaches of Positano are made of volcanic sand!
Positano had the most incredible Mediterranean architecture!
This little alleyway looked right out of a movie set!
More and more beautiful architecture!
Ciao Positano! Off to Amalfi!
This was taken shortly before arriving in Amalfi!
More of the incredible steep mountainside architecture!
The beautiful town of Amalfi is yet another must see when you travel to the Amalfi Coast!
Well the journey always continues...
