Review of Looe from Chieti
Chieti has held my attention and love for many years now, but I recently visited a town in the south west of England that rivals Chieti for its lush countryside, peaceful coastline and fishing atmosphere. Looe in Cornwall may not be able to match the warm temperatures prevalent in Chieti, but it does have many similarities that were it not for the English weather, have me thinking twice about living in Italy.
Situated near the mouth of the River Looe, the town has remarkably similar streets to those in Chieti – narrow, quaint and peaceful. Stroll down to the harbour in the morning to watch the sun rise over the piers and fishing boats (which you can also charter), and you may see some unique wildlife foraging for food. Many rare birds use the coastline and river as their hunting grounds and bird watchers from all over the country are known to visit in their droves.
