when i packed my bags for our short trip to lake garda i found some sand inside that had been in there since the days in denmark back last year. so heading down to north italy was a much needed try to give my eyes and soul new sights.
we stayed at a small town in the north west of lake garda. the landscape is rougher there and the villages are clinging firmly to the steep mountains that are towering up right behind them.
however, today i show you some photos of our only day trip to the south, to sirmione. sirmione is like some kind of italian disneyland. clichés wherever you look, the houses seem to be built for tourists and - of course - the town is packed with people. but there's also some kind of magic to this place and i can see why people are fascinated by it. everything's a little bit brighter and the sun embraces everybody walking under it. and when you look onto lake garda, water and sky seem to melt into each other sharing shades of that same fantastic turquoise colour.
