On the ferry to Corsica |
A shot in the stomach, a breath of wind in the hair, the sun in the dark glasses … It’s like being there … We are in Corsica!
A world full of incredible places, cut in half: up the mountain, down the sea …
The gods of the Mediterranean Sea could move there …
Corsica is home to a unique community: the Corsicans. A people often conquered but never submitted. A son of shepherds people with heart and character, strong, proud and capable … A people where honor and blood ties outweigh all other considerations when it comes to avenge the family .. .
The island deserves: it takes time to see through. It will take the same time for it to get used to you: It’s a girl from the Mediterranean Sea …
Hard, tragic secret, Corsica nothing is rational nor relief, nor the climate, nor the Corsicans themselves.

Ajaccio (South Corse) Cathedral |
It is the island‘s musical traditions, thin spiers dialogue and bells that echo in the valleys, where men gather to ancestral polyphonic songs and passed from father to son … Every village, every valley has its own directory …
The Corsican cuisine justifies the arrival on the island: charcuterie, soups, fish, meat and cheeses and famous fig jam, honey none! A man or woman who serves you ask “Who cuisine as well?” You answered, “My mother!” Feels then a small woman dressed in black as a beautiful heroine of ancient tragedy …There is no dark thoughts in Corsica: Everything seems to bring down heaven on earth …
All this wealth lies in one island 183 miles long and 85 miles wide … Almost nothing on the scale of the planet … And yet all the world …
Close your eyes, smell, listen … You are in Corsica
