Cinqueterre

Cinqueterre is a group of five coastal towns about four hours away from Siena, by train.  Cinqueterre is one of the most beautiful places I have ever been.  I visited all five towns while staying at the hostel of this fine woman "Mama Rosa" :




I went hiking on the mountains both days and laid out on the beach the second day.  The hikes were extremely difficult, but it was good to push my body as I have barely been doing any extreme physical activity here (besides walking uphill and the stairs of the Duomos we have visited).  I had a really relaxing time, complete with good food and company. Here are some pictures of my time:
