Canicatti

16.02.2013

Sometimes in our live we have to say goodbye. Today Sonia finished her intership and is going back home. We’re going with her to Canicatti to the bus station.

After that we decide to visit the town. Three volunteering girls, at this moment the only three tourists in Canicatti I suppose… The weather is simply beautiful, so we can hang around the old town to admire the local architecture. Suddenly, one man stops us. He recommends us to visit the museum which we can find near here. Ok, why not. We go in the direction that he showed. But as we walked 20 meters he call us. Is this that place? I don’t see any museum. Then he open the door to the garage. And there… a miracles!:)

Hand-made wooden furniture, clay pots. This place belongs to the family for generations, in the past it was a smith house.

In the next moment the owner take out two pairs of new trousers from the box. And ask if I want them. Oho… I knew that I have to buy something… but no, he says it’s for free. Is this a joke? No, please take it.

What a generosity! We leave this place with smiles and gifts that we were not expect and go to the market. Dora, admirer of the fresh food, decide to buy a cucumber. Trader asks: Only one? Oh, take it. You don’t need to pay.

I start to really love this place.

It is coming to 15, so we decide to go back by hitch-hiking. We don’t know how long we have to wait for someone to stop and take us. We are waiting… 2 minutes! :) We know that hitch-hiking is very popular here, but this surprised us completely.
