Karins Kottage Happenings

We had a wonderful time in Italy and I can’t wait to share some of our adventures with you! For now I will just share a few pictures and hopefully I can get writing up my blog posts. It always takes so much time to write the posts…maybe I will just post pictures and one sentence describing the photo haha. I always want to share so much but I overthink what to write.

Puglia is such a beautiful area of Italy. There is so much to see and explore in lots of the beach towns. We loved seeing the Nonna’s make their Orecchiette pasta and we got to eat lunch in one of there kitchens! We also went to Monopoli and another cute beach town Savelletri.

Stay tuned for more Italy posts!
