The journey began at 7 a.m. and ended at 1 a.m. A trip that should have taken no longer than 6 hours took 18, and you know what, it was worth it! less

The small factory is a non-profit operation (RDRS) that provides jobs and economic opportunity for women in this poor nation.
The silkworm is the caterpillar of Bombyx mori, the domesticated silk moth. The silk moth is entirely dependent on humans for its reproduction and no longer occurs naturally in the wild.
At the factory, the women, dressed in colorful saris, collect and sort huge piles of golden silkworm cocoons. Once sorted, the cocoons are immersed large into vats of boiling hot water.
This is bad news for the silkworms inside the cocoons! The hot water sparks a chemical reaction that allows the spun cocoon to unravel. Silkworm cocoons are natural bobbins made of one continuous strand of silk thread. After boiling, the cocoons are cooled and taken to a loom and unraveled.
The raw silk thread is then wound onto a spindle, dried and shipped to a textile factory.

The Hotel was built on a hilltop on the plan of the ancient masseries, the old apulian farmhouses as a comfortable 4 star resort, a few steps from one of the most pristine seas in Italy.
Like the old farmhouses it has its own orchard where seasonal fruits and vegetables are grown for its kitchen.
Their family restaurant on the beach right below the hotel is a hot spot and serves the freshest local sea food.
From San Gregorio one can hire a boat to ride along the coastline which is dotted with Paleolithic caves and endless coves for bathing. The trip continues to Leuca and its lighthouse. This is the southernmost tip of the peninsula where the Ionian sea and the Adriatic sea meet.
If one is in the mood for culture the city Lecce is very close by. This is a jewel of a baroque city with dramatic architecture and a lively scene. Highly recommended.
73053 Loc. San Gregorio (Le) - Puglia Italy
