A B&B owned by Laura Riccetti (UWC SEA 1980), Guest House Tana del Riccio in Salento, Puglia, proved to be an ideal and most charming location for a UWC Reunion. It was in sept 2016, when a few former students from Singapore UwcSea arrived in Puglia to meet again and spend a week together.. The area was a fantastic surprise for everybody: incredible cristalline sea water and beaches, amazing local wines and restaurants, unexpected places to visit, beautiful accomodations for everybody: in the anchient medioeval borough of Vaste, where Bed and Breakfast Tana del Riccio is located (in the immediate innerland of sea coast jewels such as Castro) and nearby, as in a scattered hotel. Headquarter was the B&B Tana del Riccio and Its “annex”…the cinematographic Museum Cafe’ of Vaste.
Every evening there was a fantastic meal to enjoy in selected restaurants and everyday there would be new magnificent beaches and grottos or towns to explore such as Lecce, also known as the italian Baroccan capital, the “Florence of Southern Italy”, among the best 10 cities to visit in the world according to Lonely Planet in 2016. Just as Puglia is considered a Top Destination to discover by National Geographic and TripAdvisor.
