vibo valentia

this city is located some 40 kilometers up the mountain and away form the coast. we rented a scooter and went around little roads in calabria all the way to this non touristic place called vibo vanlentia. here we met some local officials and had a not so touristic experience in the questura to process some papers related to our travels. so we experienced a little bit the day to day business and some of the bureaucracy of the country. most of all, the officials were always very polite and friendly with us. we also had one of the best meals of the trip so far. in a little local place, nothing fancy, not expensive; just simple good food served by the owner: a kind and big italian woman that was clearly very happy to see us eating everything she served us.
