Sicilian Summer / Personal Project

  • Yiğit Günel

Palermo offers beautiful beaches and exceptional street food with a taste of seafood to many tourists from all around the world every summer. At the end of the season when everybody gets back to their routines, it would seem like a nice vacation in a quiet city near the beach, but it is not. Beaches are full of local tourists and a little bit dirty from the tourist storm during the season. Age level is around 50 with a bunch of small children screaming around. It has still remarkable effects of Greek and Mediterranean cultures with a hint of Italian culture of tasty coffee and Europes best ice-cream in every corner. It’s time to blend in and find your place in this chaotic excitement. Forget about lying down on a quiet beach and start stretching your legs. You can find plenty of coffee shops that will provide you with strong coffee to keep you awake for the rest of your trip.
