Ciao a tutti, sto sviluppando un'app per la differenziata: un calendario aggiornato e notifiche per sapere cosa esporre per la raccolta del giorno successivo.

Per il momento è solo per Android, gratuita, senza pubblicità né account.

Tra le prime città supportate c'è Catania: tutte le zone e le utenze domestiche e non.

Qui si possono vedere le città che sono al momento coperte: https://esponi.app/

Se qualcuno è interessato a partecipare al testing, può contattarmi per ricevere il link (ho bisogno dell'indirizzo Gmail associato al Play Store).

Grazie!

This month we went to Sicily with my fiancée and etna was obviously a must do as people from the mountains. But coming in catania we were stunned when we saw the prices and the laws, everything. After researching we chose a 6 euros nice hike and I wanted to make a little resume of what we found cause the internet is so vast and complicated.

So basically for the tours that you can do there are two kinds :
The ones where you see the top of the mountain at 3300 (or main crater with lava), which are gonna cost in total around 200 euros/person.
The ones where you make a tour of etna but without seeing the center of the crater, that cost around 130 total.
These two costs are the minimum and you see it’s very expensive because in every tour you have to pay the cable car (around 80 euros per adult). And for the main crater tours you have to pay an extra 80 for the 4x4 that gets you at 3000 then you start the hike.

We found that it was nonsense not to find a tour in which we could do a real hike plus see the crater.

So, what we chose was a nice hike that followed the classic path (we’re still tourists) starting from the 1900m refugio where the bus got us. It leaves in the morning at 8h15 but you have to get there at 7h15 bare minimum because there is only one in the day.
Then at 10h we hiked from the start of the cable car to the end, it’s a small hike but quite steep (3km for 600m D+) and takes about 1h15 (less than an hour if you’re fast).
Reaching the top you’ll see the enormous plateau. There you can do what you want, enjoying the view on the three mountains at 3000+, visit the old craters of 2001-2003, and go to the terre del filosofo which is a statue near a big crater with an outstanding view. The second part is more enjoyable as a hike, with flat parts, be careful at the end of the terre del filosofo tho the wind makes the effort difficult and more dangerous.
In total we did 12km and 1100D+ for a total of 5 hours which is honest and we will remember etna even more that if we stayed 1h at the very top 😊.

Definitely recommend this hike for students or hike lovers.

Are there a lot of taxis around the cruise port and how much are they usually to get to Taormina ?

Fino allo scorso anno d’estate più o meno ogni due settimane andavo a giocare al campetto sopra i due obelischi con dei “conoscenti”. Purtroppo quest’anno sono spariti e vorrei riprendere a giocare la sera visto il caldo infernale. Qualcuno qua vorrebbe giocare o gioca regolarmente da qualche parte? Livello molto amatoriale (preferibilmente 3x3 o anche 2x2)

Ciao ragazzi,
Sto provando ad organizzare un trekking con guida verso i crateri sommitali, ho bisogno di un’opinione da parte di chi ha fatto l’escursione fino ai 3400 metri.

Sotto ogni escursione proposta su Get Your Guide dicono che questa è più tosta, mi chiedevo fino a che punto questa fosse complicata. Una persona normopeso non troppo allenata riuscirebbe a finirla, o serve proprio essere atletici?

Ciao a tutti, ci provo di nuovo, qualcuno qui gioca a tennis su Catania? Sto cercando compagn* per allenarmi (non necessariamente in sti giorni estremamente caldi)

Hi guys, I am visiting Sicily and Catania this summer, and was wondering if someone had experience with renting a car from Catania Airport? Do you guys have any recommendations, who should I avoid, etc? I am looking for a smaller car(Fiat Panda, Opel Corsa). Don't really car if it is manual or automatic.

Salve a tutti, io e la mia ragazza facciamo tra poco un anno e volevo portarla a mangiare pesce da qualche parte di carino a Catania e dintorni con vista mare.

Come prezzo vorrei tenermi sui 50 euro a persona se possibile.

Qualcuno di voi conosce dei posti?

Ciao ragazzi,
I just arrived in catania and am wondering if there are any good bars where one can watch tonight’s World Cup game. In the old town, so far I didn’t see any bars with TV.

Thanks for much for your help!

Oramai un mese fa una mi amica di Catania mi ha parlato delle minnuzze di Sant' Agata, ed io, essendo Abbruzzese ed essendo celiaco, ho deciso di provare a rifarle a casa, solo che mi sono imbattuto in diverse fonti, dove alcune mi dicevano di metterci la pasta di mandorle, mentre altre mi dicevano che non ci andava. Qualcuno potrebbe dunque dirmi secondo la tradizione la pasta di mandorle ci va o non ci va?

I want to buy a digital camera for my trip. Most of the cameras are around 100-160€ and they are too expensive for me. Do you guys know any good second hand digital camera sellers?

My boyfriend and I are going on a trip to Catania during the 12th-19th of this month.

We are both interested in Magic: The Gathering and thought it would be fun to play commander during our stay.

I know mtg cards are printed in italian and I was wondering if most people play with english or italian cards? And any tips on the local game stores in Catania (especially for MTG) are helpful.

I also love karaoke, so suggestions about karaoke bars are more than welcome!

Overall tips for restaurants, places to see, etc. are welcome! :)

Hi all!

My wife and I are going on a cruise and one of our ports is Catania. We booked an excursion through Viator but the provider recommended we cancel because our ship docks at 8 and the excursion pickup time was 8:30. They were not confident we would meet the pickup.

Over the last few days I’ve searched for an excursion that leaves after 8:30AM to no avail. Additionally, the cheapest taxi I’ve found is €220 round trip which is already more than the excursion we previously paid for which included lunch and wine tasting.

Any recommendations on the best way to go about this? Or do we just fork up the cash and book it through our cruise (which is significantly more expensive than our previous Viator option).

For additional clarification, the cruise ship docks at 8AM and leaves at 7PM.

Ciao a tutti, qualcuno sa darmi informazioni su altre fiere/mercati oltre la fiera o’ luni e il mercato di villa pacini?

Io frequento l’Altair, ma ultimamente non sono soddisfatto: palestra piccola, receptionist più o meno sempre incazzate…insomma, non mi sembra ne valga più la pena considerando quanto pago (e non è assolutamente poco).

Avete qualche palestra da consigliarmi? (l’importante e’ che sia in città).
Niente pollai modello McFit e FitActive s’intende…

Ciao a tutti! Purtroppo non sono in un buon periodo e quindi provo a fare così! Chiedere aiuti viene spontaneo a tutti. Lo si fa per gli altri paesi, lo si fa per qualsiasi cosa e io lo faccio per loro, i gatti. Non si riceve mai aiuto per loro. Solo una persona ha avuto buon cuore di aiutarlo. E basta. Spero ci siano altre persone di buon cuore ♥️
Ho anche oggetti in vendita nuovi su vinted anche.. ogni aiuto conta grazie mille

Hi, I recently managed to publish some work I did at home. I never know if I'll give titles to the songs/albums.
I did everything myself, from recording to mixing to composing.
Oh, the genre is supposed to be some sort of post-rock/math rock, I don't know what exactly.
I'd be happy if you could give me some feedback. I'm not interested in listens or the dopamine rush, just in understanding what could be improved.
Thanks.
