It’s a rainy Sunday in Amalfi, but I’ll just mentally take a stroll down this pastel street on Procida today. How about you? 💗

The colors today in Amalfi were mesmerizing. It was hard to pull myself away! To enjoy some peaceful moments, there are more photos from today on my Stories. 💙

Celebrating Procida today and its nomination as the Italian Capital of Culture for 2022. I’ve shared in Stories more photos and videos from my trip there last September and you can read more about the nomination at the link in my bio. This small island off the coast of Naples is easily one of my favorite places in Campania. Congratulations to @procida2022!

When even the slightest bit of sun comes out after

When even the slightest bit of sun comes out after more than a week of rain aaaaallll the laundry comes out. I’m still catching up as we have a teeny tiny washer/ dryer combo on our outside terrace. Yes ... it’s a dryer, too! It sure does help in the winter with sheets. And not having crunchy towels is divine. (If you know you know...) Doing laundry in the winter takes a bit of planning and creativity since our terrace doesn’t get as much sun as these homes. But I love drying my laundry in the Amalfi sun when the weather is warm. ☀️

It’s oh so quiet in Amalfi these days. A lot of you have noticed how quiet it looks and it is true that it’s a bit quieter than usual. However, from January (after the Epiphany) to February is the quietest time of the year on the Amalfi Coast. It’s the time when ... in a normal year ... many people take a break or go on holiday. Of course, everything is different now. But even though Campania is a zona gialla (yellow zone) region most restaurants and many shops are usually closed during this quiet period.

I’ve also been enjoying walks after lunch, which is by far the quietest time of the day. There actually were people in the piazza when I took this photo yesterday at 2:45pm, but I find I often naturally take photos without people in them. I’ve realized over the years that I’m intrigued by seeing urban space without people. It’s an interesting way to stop and look at the places we live in and move through daily. But like everyone, I am eager to see Amalfi’s square full of life and vibrancy and for you to be able to travel to the Amalfi Coast again soon!

It stopped raining! It was such a joy to take a long and quiet walk in Amalfi after lunch today. I love it rain or shine, but that glimpse of bright blue sky was sure a welcome sight today. 💙

Same photo different day. Well that was some storm

Same photo different day. Well that was some storm of a week, eh? Literally here on the Amalfi Coast since it has hardly stopped raining. This time last week I woke up sick but just with a light cold. (Phew!) Started Wednesday feeling better and then ended the day shocked and disgusted like so many people around the world with what was happening in Washington, DC. I spend a lot of time thinking about words - it’s what I do. They matter and how we use them matters. This morning I woke up with the catchy Harry Styles song “Treat People with Kindness” dancing around in my head. So on that note, I am off to catch up on all the lovely words and comments you all have shared with me over the past week. Thank you for your kindness ... let’s keep spreading that through good times and bad!
