Having already started my holidays and not wanting to make any of you feel left out I thought that I would give you a taste of Sardinia and to be honest.... I am loving it. Coming here in the cooler months has its benefits, the buzz of the beaches filled with tanned European bodies is all but a tranquil pebble laden vista, and to be honest it is still as beautiful. I will miss out on my Mediterranean sun, but am able to move freely and not feeling like I need fight for a piece of beach. I have based myself for my first few days in the Northern town of Alghero. Influenced from the Catalna colonists in 1323, the town centre has a beautiful medieval feel and somewhat like what I expect to see in Spain. I knew the reason why I was living on salad and fish back home was because here I am living on cheese....Cheeses are among the specialities here in Sardinia and a couple that I have tried among the many other mozzarellas, goat and sheep are the bonassai and the maristella, although everything here is delicious, local, different and unique to this beautiful island. I will post more of my Sardinian, Sicilian and Spanish adventures here, so stay tuned!!
