Ladies and gents, this is a special moment in my trip. If you are following my adventures during this journey you already know that I started early May so this makes it my longest one by far. "By far" goes in time but mileage wise I am @ 8000km right now which equals my previous longest one so it is going to be the one during which I did the most kilometres too. But here at Pugliano is the last AirBnB I have to rent for this trip as it's the last place I stay before I take the ferry to Ancona back to Greece in a few days. So many months on the road and feels like yesterday...it's a feeling hard to describe but makes material for a later post.
Now I don't have time for such analysis cause among other commitments I think I must walk you around the village I stay. So, grab your comfy shoes and lets walk down this road:
And while I see quite a few cyclists going this downhill at lightning speed I am even more impressed by the ones who dare the uphill with the impatient local drivers right behind their ass:
You may go "hey, show us the village!" but guys trust me, it's even worse than the previous one (Quero @ Belluno). And also trust me on the fact that there's better views here around the fields, despite the neglected equipment some might have:
Don't exactly understand what is "not authorised" according to this sign but I don't think my following acts will break any written or unwritten law here anyway:
Don't rush to judge this local artistic attempt cause the youngsters of this tiny village are too few to create any sort of competition here:
Here's a point of interest though:
So the thing is that at some point they cross checked that some medieval paintings of Piero della Francesca included real landscapes and not just imaginary ones as initially believed. More specifically, here this place gives you the chance to make a comparison of his work named "Resurrection":
Keep in mind that Italy still measures in km not miles...
By the time I have walked back to my place I am hungry like the wolf as you can imagine so it's time to cook. If I pick the following one I gotta get some translating assistance from our friend Google:
Thanks for walking with me fellows, the adventure is not over - see you on the next one!
