Inside my borders - Sicily, UTWT 2021 Ep.5, Badjelannda Sulitelma Run Fest, Ibiza Marathon and Anne-Marie Madden

Inside my borders 2 – Sicily
Michele, our backpacker friend, is forced to travel inside his Italian borders due to the travel restrictions following the Covid crisis. This time no biking but a long walk across Sicily on the Magna Via Francigena from Palermo to Agrigento, an ancient road already used by the Romans as early as in the 2nd century BC. This is a 187 km walk divided into 9 stages. All along the way, Michele enjoys gorgeous natural scenery, lots of hills and climbs, prehistoric sites, beautiful villages such as the famous Corleone, Prizzi, Sutera and several others. He will also have the pleasure to taste the famous Cannoli and several other gastronomic Sicilian specialties.
