Has anyone ever been to Puglia and can recommend where to stay? ATM we have no real steer if we want town or sea so very open to ideas. A bit of luxe never goes amiss...

It's huge. And yes I do, I can see lots of metrics.

A moment that changed me: I bumped into my ex-boyfriend in the bar where we’d met 12 years before

At 16, I fell for Giacomo when I was on holiday in Italy. Our young love didn’t survive my move home to Scotland, but years later, quite unexpectedly, we found each other again
