The Mediterranean from the apartment I was staying in Praiano. This is probably my favorite picture of all time. During the week I spent here, I'd sit in the balcony and watch the fishermen catch the fish that I was going to be eating at lunch. Many a limoncello spritz was had in the afternoons and evenings on this balcony and I feel like this is the first image that pops into my head now whenever someone mentions the word "summer."

🔴 **The human-driven ecological success of olive trees over the last 3700 years in the Central Mediterranean**

_“We hypothesize that cultural exchanges between Sicily and the Aegean in the Early-Middle Bronze Age have promoted the use of wild olive trees in the Messina area. At that time, olive trees could have been used for various purposes, including fruit production, but also wood and forage for animals. The development of olive groves followed a gradual, multi-stage process in the Central Mediterranean, with large-scale cultivation appearing only in modern times.”_
