Last Summer I had a few weeks left before going back to university in Falmouth, so I decided to call Les Glénans, a French sailing school where I had previously worked. They told me there was a space helping to repair boats in Bonifacio in Corsica, so I booked my ferry tickets and off I was for a week! I thought I'd share a few photos of this magical place, where I am actually returning to in a few weeks because I loved it so much. Catching the 7 hour ferry across the Mediterranean at 7am from Toulon, watching the sunrise Arriving in the hidden lagoon of le Fazzio, a 15min boat ride from Bonifacio, where I would be staying for a week Camping and living in the Corsican (not sure how to say this) wild nature The shower and bathroom facilities, really basic but how nice is it to have a shower under the bright sunshine All the boats lined up, ready to set off We found snorkels and went for a swim in the warm clear waters, admiring the fish Going sailing everyday in the warm weather and learning new skills Colourful sunsets Sailing past La Madonetta on the way into the port of Bonifacio to get more food supplies for the camp La Madonetta by night
