After a lovely 1 1/2 train ride from Nice I arrived at Imperia. From their it is little under 30 min. by car  (25 km). A village with around 1.400 inhabitants (in 1861 approx. 4.360) who are actively (!) with a lot of passion participating  to make it a nice place to be: welcome to Pieve di Teco.

It’s a lovely little town with a big and small churches (8), a river, mountains and walking trails close by and many nice, friendly and open people. There is also a number of foreigners calling it their new home now.

The village impresses with its papermill and tannery plus all the culinary trade branches: cheese, wine and a special bread.
