PUGLIA, ITALY: Why you must visit & the BEST PASTICCIOTTO in LECCE

The Southern Italy region of Puglia has everything you would want in a trip: beaches, incredible food, history, a slower pace of life, and friendly faces!

WHERE ELSE DO YOU WANT TO SEE ME GO IN EUROPE?! Leave a comment below, let me know!

I visited Lecce, in Salento, with my friends Jeremy, Michelle and Dominico (who live there!). THE PEOPLE of the trip made it truly incredible...but the PLACE was extraordinary, too!!

Watch the video for my favorite things in Puglia, including:
1. The beach! We went to Punta Della Suina in Gallipoli
2. Gelato. (Enough said!)
3. Linguine alla vongole -- my favorite dish I had (which was a really hard decision to make). L'Ostrica Ubriaca in Lecce has such delicious seafood!
4. The history! Explore, read, learn...you'll be happy you did.
5. The food! While you're there, you've got to try pasticciotto, have a rustico, drink some Quarta coffee, have orecchiette pasta, eat some taralli (kind of like pretzels, so addicting!). And of course, the seafood, pizza, lasagne, horse meat stewed in red wine, the list goes on...

A big thanks to the family behind Caffe L'Incontro in Lecce!! They warmly welcomed me and my camera back into their kitchen to watch how they make their incredible pasticciotto. The king of pastries in Salento!
