Waking up in the morning to a sky already blue, the sun gently warming the air, and the sea
stretching out on the horizon.
It may seem like a small detail, but it’s not at all, especially for those arriving from Paris, where the days start before sunrise, in the cold and gloom.

Autumn is a wonderful season: nature prepares for winter, the colors change, and the air becomes clearer. Yet all too often, we miss out on it, lost in concrete, traffic, and confusion.

Taking a break at this time of year means recharging body and mind, getting ready to face the winter ahead.

We’ve just guided a group through the Aspromonte Mountains, exploring the far south of the Italian peninsula and the region of Calabria. A week of walking, history, gastronomy, and encounters.

We walked under the sun, that beautiful autumn sun, swam in the waters of the Strait of Messina, admired extraordinary landscapes, and shared the best tomato salad in the world, in the shade of an ancient olive tree.

A week that felt like an eternity, because every moment was lived fully, without haste.
Just a few hours by plane from Paris, and you find a completely different world: Calabria, authentic, bright, and welcoming.

The perfect choice for an autumn getaway.
