    Traveling through there I met a guy who drives cabs half the year in NYC, and then spends the rest of the year walking around the area fishing and selling the fish to local restaurants and hotels. Might be the way to go.

      Funny you say this, there’s a giant underground parking lot up the hill built into the mountain. That being said, the train connections are amazing with trains running every ten minutes.

        and that rather effectively shows why we should put parking underground if we truly must have it, means we’re not completely ruining our surroundings just so people can park their living rooms wherever they feel like

          Absolutely agree. This is also a historic UNESCO world heritage site, and all construction is very heavily regulated. You can’t add a light post without going through intense approval process.

  • TIL I’m a dumb-ass. I always thought this was Cinque Terre, because that’s how I’ve always seen it labeled. I’ve never been there, and I don’t speak Italian, but I know enough from other romance languages that “Cinque Terre” means “Five Lands,” or something like that. I should have figured out by now that Cinque Terre was a collection of towns, and not just one. I guess Manarola just gets all the photographic love.
