We are in a highly technological age, we can research any topic from the comfort of our armchair, simply with a smartphone.
But have you, like me, ever experienced that frustration of not being able to search for what you wanted? Very often, searches on the internet, on tourism topics as on any other, often return repetitive results. You would like to find out more, learn more, see if you can find that something extra, only for the next article to say exactly the same thing as what you have already read.
When I can, I always try to formulate verbally to my Bed & Breakfast guests a whole series of useful tips on how and what to see in the area during their stay. I thus find myself leaving out dozens and dozens of interesting places and activities, only through my forgetfulness or lack of time.
I always thought it would be very useful to have a list of interesting places, without wanting to go into too much detail, into the history of the place, into the details.... just a series of 'suggestions', hints, so that the tourist can decide in a few seconds if he is interested in taking a diversion on his itinerary or if he prefers to go straight.
So I decided to create something similar, hoping to be useful to my clients and to those who would like to visit this area full of fascinating places.
