Costa Fascinosa is a cruise ship of the Genoa-based Costa Crociere company. It was ordered in October 2007 and built at the Fincantieri shipyard in Marghera. It entered service on 5 May 2012. The names Costa Fascinosa and Costa Favolosa were selected through a competition. The choice of names was guided by approximately 40,000 travel agents in over 40 countries, who submitted more than 16,000 possible pairs of names for the two ships. In the end, twenty-five pairs of names were published on the World of Costa website, where visitors were invited to choose their favorite pairing, and after more than 42,000 preferences expressed, in the end the names “Favolosa” and “Fascinosa” were the winners.

Dream sea: Carlisle Bay on the island of Barbados. One of the most beautiful beaches I have visited in the Caribbean is definitely the beautiful Carlisle Bay on the island of Barbados.

Dream beaches: the Baths Beach in Virgin Gorda. I have to say that the job I do is really difficult in many ways (many months away from home and family) but, obviously, it also has its positive sides. One of these is that with the ship you can reach dream destinations and, when I am lucky enough to have a little free time I can visit dream places. Like this beach on Virgin Island, truly a spectacle!

The yellow or Peruvian oleander photographed in the Caribbean. I don't remember exactly on which beach in the Caribbean I found this flower (I think in Antigua) but I liked it a lot and, in Europe, it's not so normal to find flowers on the beach. Doing some research online I think I understood that it is the flower called thevetia peruviana but if someone more expert wants to correct me, they are welcome!
