Adjusting to Palermo’s Street Life

We’ve been here for about two weeks, and are just starting to adjust to life on Palermo’s streets. On the chaotic alleyways of this city, scenes of striking beauty are almost as common as mountains of trash. But somehow, ancient elegance and modern grime work together well, giving Palermo an authentic feeling of life. If it all were clean and sparkly, the city wouldn’t be nearly as captivating.

Me and my partner (more precisely me
) are thinking about visiting
)) I’m more of a city wondering person and my boyfriend is more a
Palermo for our summer vacation, so I was looking for a room or a studio
for rent on the Internet and I don’t know how i end up watching your
pictures. I was staring with my mouth open. Amazing! Now I can’t wait to
go
beach person, so I was wondering if you guys maybe went to Mondello
beach and if you did, how was it? Any way thank you for the beautiful
pictures you decided to share, I was stunned while watching.
Best regards from Macedonia
