Has anyone ever been to Palermo, Sicily? Please divulge!

1 Answer

Answer :

I have a food & antiquities loving neighbor who went to Sicily with her husband and loved it very much. Apart from a general recommendation, and that it can get quite hot, I don’t know details worth sharing. I’ve not been to Sicily myself, though I love the parts of Italy I have been to.
