Magical Alicudi! It plays tricks on you! making islands appear and disappear into ether before your very eyes. Clouds float by as if they have a mind of their own. Caper flowers, sage and mint line the paths that wind over the hills like arteries while lemon groves and olive trees remind you of the past that is in no hurry to catch up with the present. An occasional seagull dots the skyline over the rugged coastline that meets the magnificent Mediterranean, stretched out before you like a silken bath, constantly changing its currents and colors, as if to entertain the Gods who pleasure in its beauty. Sleepy Alicudi is for kindred spirits who can keep its secrets and love it unconditionally, for it is indeed a magical place and Guilias home is the jewel in its crown.
