There will be a series of posts over the next few weeks on the Italian region of Abruzzo. Abruzzo is one of the most remote, poorest and least touristy areas in Italy. The seven days we were there staying at a rented farmhouse. This Journey will include food, towns, churches, mountains, food and the essence of this remote region. The cities we will cover: Chieti, Pescara, Penne, the truly medieval town of San Stefano di Sessanio, a few random villages and lots of food.
A place so rural, Google Maps never repeated the same way to and from any destination. Where you had as much chance to place chicken with a tractor as with a car.
