Located on the shores of the Ligurian coastline and just a quick drive or ferry ride to the beloved Portofino or San Fruttuoso Abbey, this is the ever-so stunning Santa Margherita Ligure.. 🌴 !.

Manarola, Cinque Terre National Park, Liguria, Italy

Known for its pastel-coloured houses that slope down to the Mediterranean Sea, Manarola, seen in today's image, looks like something straight out of a fairy tale. Set on the rugged cliffs of the Ligurian coast of Italy, it is one of five villages that make up the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Cinque Terre National Park. The name 'Manarola' could be derived from the Latin 'Magna rota', which in the local dialect became 'Magna roea' (big wheel), referring to the large wheel of the village's historic mill.

Puttering around on the Ligurian language sites that exist for Fanfic Reasons and enjoying the fact that so many people actually learnt about the existence of Italian dialects thanks to The Old Guard fandom. Brings me joy when someone mentions Nicky speaking Zeneise in fic.

I keep circling back to the idea of APH Genova having long hair in modern times. Except it's kinda ugly and choppy because his ass is too cheap to go to a hairdresser. I wouldn't be surprised if Feliciano takes pity on him and offers to cut his hair (for free!!) sometimes--

Nile: Nicky, you are sauceless

Nicky: ...But I have made three different sauces just this week?

PESTO, SUGO, BOLOGNESE, AND STILL NO SAUCE FOR HIM

Considering he was born just fourteen years after corsica got indipendence from Genoa in 1755 (and barely 15 months after France bought it in 1769 - the dates of acquisition from one republic to the state are a bit different) I'd say he himself was of italian descent at this point lol. It's also pretty obvious by looking at his surname but both his parents were born in italian-ruled Corsica
