    What town would recommend as a base to explore this island for seven nights?

    • @januslog
      @januslog  5 місяців тому

      Great question. It depends what you are most interested in and how you want to structure the trip. If you’re into mountains and hiking, I would stay in or around Corte. From there, you can do day trips to the coastal areas. If you’re more into beaches, then the beaches around Calvi in the north and some of the Douthern beach towns might be best. But from either of these places you would need to take a 2-3 day trip to the other parts of the island.

      Corsican people own french nationality, it is a fact. Some corsicans might not like it, but the majority of Corsican people still acknowledge their french nationality.
