You can tell whether an area is good for hiking or not by the availability of water. Either from natural sources (creeks, waterfalls) or from wells.
A few handfuls of cold water are enough to continue walking for many miles, even in the summer heat.
The photo was taken at Zingaro, a nature reserve on the north coast of Sicily.

Ok. I’m now officially really jealous…

What else would you expect, with Italian food all around me?
OMG! You are gaining so much around your midsection as I can see from this picture. You were very hot in Latvia. Now I am sure you are enjoying too much in Italy!!
Wow… poor Andreas….don’t listen to the them! Eat as much as you want !! because:
1-as long as your wife finds you attractive you’re OK
2-being “hot” is possible with a little extra pounds
3-don’t listen to the diet Nazis :), you’re fine!
