Valerie brings her appetite and her hiking shoes to coastal villages of The Cinque Terra, five ancient fishing hamlets along Italy's Riviera fast becoming one of Italy's star attractions. This part of Italy gave the world Pesto and after a brief cooking lesson Valerie does her best to create her own Pringle Pesto. The towns of the Cinque Terre seem like they are carved out of rock, much like the famous walkways from one village to the next. The road from Manarola to Riomaggiore, the Via Dell'Amore, is the most famous part of the Cinque Terre Walk, and after three and a half hours Valerie and her blisters can lay claim to having completed it.
