🇮🇹 PALERMO 🇮🇹
📚 PIETRO TRAMONTE’S LIBRARY
📖 when former accountant Pietro Tramonte retired • he decided to share his dream & love of books by turning a quaint street of Palermo, Sicily into an open library with his collection of 4000+ books
❤️ today there’s over 70,000 books in a multitude of languages (mainly Italian) & Pietro can still be found there daily a few hours at a time with a welcoming smile, ready to tell the story of his library & help find you a good book
🙏🏻 we actually stumbled upon this during our travels as we were on our way to book a restaurant for dinner later that week • how I wished I had had more time to speak to Pietro & find myself a good book as a keepsake & take a photo with this kind gentleman
🍃 perhaps that means I’ll simply have to return
❤️ books can be exchanged, borrowed or bought depending on the book
