January, february and march 2015 we spend in Casa Vacanze in Balestrate. We rented a car and drove round in Sicily almost every day, Never have we spend so long time away from home, but we felt like home in Balestrate. It is nice to live side by side with the inhabitants of Sicily, to shop with them, to live almost the same life as them. We bought a book about cooking in Italy, shopped the necessary grosarys and cooked the italian food every day (very different from danish food).
When we went to the supermarket every day, we met the sicilians who said ciao to us even if they didnt know us, so we felt like home very quickly.
The appartment was nice to live in, and the host Guiseppe is very nice and very friendly. We enjoyed to live next to Maria, who helped us to find a mecanic and other practical things. Also we were lucky to get help from Guiseppes mother, who is a nice and helpfull lady.
We plan to come again, and can absolutely recommand the stay to others.
