Italian vulcano erupts again! It is pretty hot.



Italy is a very diverse country, and not just culturally but also geologically. Europe’s largest volcano [vulcano], Mount Etna, is in Sicily. Another big active volcano Vesuvio is near Naples, which sports one of the highest population density in the world (yes, not safe…). Anyway, watch here: Etna erupted again earlier this month — for the fifth time this year. Ash was spread around the local area, but it did not disrupt air traffic or tourist activity — yes, you can have wonderful hikes up there. Good wineries too as ashes make soil super-fertile. Just do not get too close….
