I took these photos years ago in Northern Italy. I cannot remember for the life of me where it was taken or what this place is. (Taken at a time in my life when I didn’t track my every move in a journal and GPS on photos didn’t exist!) I think of this place from time to time because it is so beautiful and peaceful.
Anyone have any idea where and what it is?
*Update! Thanks to other bloggers we have identified it as Hermitage Santa Caterina del Sasso! I knew we would figure it out!

Omg. You do. You would never leave. It is so amazingly beautiful there. And the food is the best in Europe.

š Well, you remember at least a major city nearby, no? Was it north or south? Judging from the weather I’d say north. š Lago di Como? Italy has many lakes though, it will be hard. Lago di Garda?

It was definitely north and I assume it was on one of the lakes yes. I seem to remember it being a hermitage?

Ok, now it’s easier. š I never heard of this word before. But look, from Wiki: “Hermitage of Santa Caterina del Sasso is a Roman Catholic monastery located in the municipality of Leggiuno, in the Province of Varese and the region of Lombardy, Italy. It is perched on a rocky ridge on the eastern shore of Lake Maggiore.” Check it out – this is it!

I knew blogger friends would figure it out. Great detective skills!

Lake of Cuomo maybe? I wouldn’t vouch on it.
I too tend to forget some details of places.
Reason why I file photos away in specific folders.
(Until I erase them!)

Regardless of where the photos were, they are very nice. One definitely wants to go down the stairs to the water.
