It is not just the houses, but the cost of food too which is astronomical! I loaded up my suitcases in Calabria with as much as I could carry and bel ragazzo will be doing the same when he comes back on Sunday. Enough complaining for the time being...have a look at some pics from down south.
I was not there for long, but other then visiting il dottore and losing a little blood I had time to pick some pretty wildflowers and hunt for some asparagus. (See them in my hand?) It is not really the season, but I was most excited as I have never seen let alone eaten wild asparagus before. Bel ragazzo's fratello is a pro at spotting them and I think given a bit of time I could become a pro too (well I did spot one on my own!)

We went down to one of the families properties, la scuola to see the bees at work. Every year the bee keeper man comes and leaves these boxes for some time as the location of la scuola is ideal for them. For 'leasing' out the land they get paid in honey...and here I was honestly wondering why they always had buckets full of the stuff.
My time in Malito was limited, but we did make time to have dinner with one of the best looking men in the village (and his mum and dad too :)

Ola Clecia,
Obrigada :)
You must've hit it here during the couple days of cool--it's really been quite lovely. Just like those wildflowers and asparagus :)
Hi Michelle,
Yes I was there during the cold spell as my boyfriend is still there and said it is nice and warm now!
What a lovely vacation you had. The place sounds interesting if you're looking for some quite place to relax. Thanks for this article!
