✨ My first encounter with Capri was through glossy magazine spreads; the next time, sea breezes carrying the scent of lemons swept me into the summer splendor of the Gulf of Naples. From the swaying lemon trees along the Amalfi Coast to the shimmering coastline, every inch of scenery here feels like a meticulously painted divine masterpiece!
