West coast of Sardinia

The day before yesterday we left Bosa and started driving south along the west coast of Sardinia. Today we have reached the small village of Portixeddu, just north of Buggerru. The roads are winding - sometimes along the coast and sometimes high up in the mountains. We have driven past fields, beaches, high mountains and industrial areas, and sometimes straight through small charming villages (where the motorhome barely fits on the roads).

Starting in Bosa

We started the trip in Bosa, on the fine motorhome campsite by the water where we had been standing for several days. It was almost hard to leave, but the adventure continues!

Dinner with local ingredients

After our little excursion to the village of Scano di Montiferro we came home with fresh and local produce in Sardinia. From our new friends' farm we brought zucchini, lettuce and spinach, and from the butcher we brought fresh salsiccia (Italian sausage).

Three times a week, pigs are delivered from local farmers to the butcher - who then cuts and makes sausages. Isn't that how things should be done everywhere? Oh, how we'd love to be able to ever buy pork or sausages in a Swedish supermarket again. And what about the flavour? Well, there is no comparison! This is how meat and vegetables should taste!

RV park south of Oristano

Yesterday we stayed at a small campsite on a beach south of Oristano. Five euros/day including water and facilities for emptying tanks can be considered a bargain, even if the beach was a bit dull (endlessly long with no beautiful background to rest your eyes on - we know we're getting spoilt!)

These "balls" can be found on many beaches - here at Oristano there were many!

Today we have arrived at an even more beautiful beach at a charming little village. The plan is to fricamp here tonight before continuing our journey south.
