Default Back Street in Como, Italy
Hi everyone. On my last trip to Italy, I pitched my tent on the shore of Lake Como, Northern Italy, and walked up the steep slopes to find something to eat and drink. Came to a small village with a myriad of back streets like this one. It was so charming. Hope you like it. PAUL

Great shot Preach, love that quaint lil street. No cars though. Seems you're doing a euro tour, seeing you were in France the other day. Enjoy the holiday.

Hi Michael. Yes, they are from one of my trips last year. I had 3, 5 week trips on my bike. One of my fav places was Czeck Republic, esp Prague. Off again next year to Portugal. Glad you enjoyed this. PAUL
