Having just got back from a fabulous week in Corsica, I’d like to share some highlights
from my Instagram feed over the last 8 days. Stayed tuned to find out more.
You can folow my adventures on Instragram @TravelWithKat.
A quiet beach on the east coast, near San Cyprien
On a mission, researching Corsican cheese
The beautiful scenery, near Porto Vechio
Fromage de Tête
A tasty lunch of Fromage de Tête at the lovely restaurant at Kalina Bay, Porto Vechio – not cheese at all but diced up pigs cheeks, noise etc, which is much tastier than it sounds – I loved it!
A quick detour to Bonifacio, one of my favourite Corsican towns
Bonifacio
One of my favourite hotels, Le Goéland, Porto Vechio
Baby squid risotto at Le Goéland
Mi-cuit Chocolat
Mi-cuit Chocolat at Le Goéland, a light chocolate sponge which when broken releases a cascade of melted chocolate – my favourite dish of the week without a doubt!
Sunset at Porto Pollo
Making new friends!
The beautiful beaches of the west coast
The biggest and best Corsican Salad at Una Stonda, Olmetto Plage
Tomatoes, goats’ cheese, pancetta, walnuts, croutons, olives, figs…
Campomoro beach
A cool Pietra by the sea
Sartene, known as Corsica’s most Corsican town
Disclosure: I travelled to Corsica while working for Corsican Places,
visiting holiday villas and hotels in the south of the island.

Firstly, I really do think that Instagram is becoming a great way to showcase your pictures. You have done a great job here with Corsica and really inspired us to hopefully make a trip there sooner rather than later. Love the picture of Sartene and the stereotypical Corsican town!! Thanks Kat, great collection of images.
Beautiful photos Kat, and just about time to get dinner ready over here, you’re making me hungry-especially that salad and the molten chocolate cake! What beautiful views, and so lucky to be visiting for over 10 years. It’s great when you get to know a place so well.
That cheese – and that chocolate pudding!!! Oh my! Looking forward to reading the rest of the posts 🙂
This is definitely an island to visit and maybe 2015 for me…OMG all that amazing food and cheese, it really is a foodie paradise! I’m packing my bags now….
I haven’t been to Corsica before, but the food and beaches look great. Please tell me that Corsican salad isn’t one portion!!?
It is indeed one portion (the biggest salad I’ve ever seen). I hope my upcoming posts will tempt you to find out for yourself one day!
Great pics Kathryn, you’ve made me insanely jealous. Love the view over Sartene.
Sorry Andy! I’ve been visiting the island for over 10 years but mainly in the north so it was great to get to know the outh a little better.
Stunning views, fabulous food and I love the donkey pic. A great taste of Corsica!
I had a fabulous time and the donkey was very obiliging, although I half exepected him to lick my iPhone – glad he didn’t!
