Our shepherd Nuntio

Today we visited our shepherd Nuntio. He recently prepared a delicious lamb 🐑 for us and sat around the campfire 🔥 with us for a long time afterwards.

At one point I challenged him to a nighttime swimming 🏊 competition. Of course, as a proud Sicilian, he couldn't let that go and jumped into the water 🌊 with me (naked but in socks! 🤣). In the middle of the night 🌛, mid-February. The others stood on the beach 🏖️ cheering.

For the rest of the evening he sat by the fire 🔥 in awe and repeated 10 times that he had never experienced anything like that. In short: we had a big piece of cake afterwards.

Today we walked across the fields and visited him. A lamb had been born shortly before and now it was a matter of building the bond between the mother sheep and the lamb. It was all very exciting and afterwards Nuntio invited us to his house for panettone al cioccolato and homemade limoncello.

Of course he didn't have much time because it was the middle of the day and his work called. But we will see each other again, because his nephew is a fisherman and will bring over a fatty fish 🐟 that Nuntio would like to grill with and for us.

What hospitality 😍❤️.Read more
