It could be the portrayal of its contrasting Adriatic coastline against the rugged Gran Sasso &#038; smooth Majella Mountains. Life here is organic &#038; seasonal, hard but happy.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[Our fortnight’s snapshot of Abruzzo.  Rather than love, it’s a little overtaken by politics &#038; sports but there is a lovely biscuit blog to check and cook for a special one, or to treat yourself to if you are single.  Our attention was drawn to them by some comments on how one type of biscotti were called "bocca di 'dama," or, literally, “the lady's mouth” in Abruzzo  – which we think is just perfect for Valentine’s Day!<br/>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[My suggestion is to take a visit to the Teramo Cathedral of Santa Maria Assunta &#038; San Bernardo.
