I’m really happy we decided to go to this small, but honestly fun festival near where we live. We got to connect more with our community, and it was honestly a great experience watching people of all ages smile with focaccia in their hand, kids running around while their parents relax in the shade of olive trees.
The first time I went to Camogli, I had zero expectations. I didn’t Google it. I didn’t have a plan. I just started walking—classic me.
