If there’s one place that looks exactly like the postcards (maybe even better) – it’s Cinque Terre. Tucked along the rugged Italian Riviera, these five little villages feel like they were painted onto the cliffs just for travelers like us to marvel at. With their pastel houses tumbling toward the sea, winding cobblestone streets, and the kind of sunsets that make you forget to blink, Cinque Terre is pure magic. We spent a day here just… getting… lost…. between staircases and gelato shops, hopping trains between villages, and stopping every five minutes just to say “wow” (and take another photo, of course). We sipped a glass of local wine as the sky blushed pink and realized this must have been one of the most beautiful places we’d ever been to. Here’s my photo diary of one of the most beautiful corners of Italy — a little slice of la dolce vita captured in snapshots.
