One thing about me is that I am in love with the sea. Nothing brings me more calm or peace of mind than taking a walk along the beach or going for a swim on a hot summer day. And if you combine that with a historic town and good food, well, you have me completely over the moon.

At the beginning of November, I left my little station in Rome and went on a family trip to Puglia, a region in the south of Italy that forms the heel of the boot. Puglia is special because it has coastal towns on two different seas: the Adriatic and the Ionian. So in just one region, you can admire two incredibly beautiful coastlines.

In this blog post, I will tell you all about the most stunning coastal towns in Puglia, both on the eastern and the southwestern coast. If you are a sea lover like me (or a history one, or a food one, or honestly just an Italy person in general), these towns are absolutely worth visiting.

If you follow me on Instagram, you know that at the beginning of November I went on a week-long trip to Puglia, a region in the south of Italy. I was there with my family, so no solo trip this time (very unusual for me), and I had a wonderful vacation filled with beautiful towns, nature, and amazing food.
One of my favourite towns we visited in Puglia is Lecce, a city that is more than two thousand years old and famous for its rich baroque architecture. In this blog post, I will tell you what to see in Lecce, so I can hopefully convince you to put this beautiful town on your Puglia itinerary.
