Apricale, Italy: population 578










Just over the French border are some of the most enchanting villages in Liguria.  Its nice to take on the lazy pace from time to time, to sit in the square, have a drink and wait for the school bus to drop off the children. Yes, luckily, there are a growing number of young families to round out the population.

  1. The village looks like a waterfall of houses cascading down this slope. One of my favorite memories of village life was a Grandpa picking up his grandchild from the bus stop, then riding the child home on his bicycle.

  5. What an enchanting place. Thanks for the images! Italia—my dream. I'll never forget what a nice time I had in San Remo in 09 with Jeanne. I've been studying Italian for a few years now. ciao, Karen Victoria
