One look at these colorful umbrellas and I'm ready to hop a plane. I have not explored the Italian coast, but this beautiful scene on Montorosso Beach on the Cinque Terre has me ready for some fun in the sun. According to photographer Chris Schoenbohm (lostmanproject.com), it is perhaps some of the most pristine and untouched coastline on all of the Italian Mediterranean. He describes the UNESCO world heritage site as "five miles of rocky coastline among two promontories, endless dry-laid stone walls, century old hillside vineyards, and five towns [which] make up the distinct features." I can see why one could spend days exploring the sites in Cinque Terre which are all uniquely different. Taking a train or hiking the trails between the small towns is meant to be quite breathtaking. The photographer says, "There isn't a spot in all of the Cinque Terre that doesn't gaze out into the turquoise blue waters of the Mediterranean." Monterosso has most of the beachfront property in the area. I'm packing my bags. #takemethere
