Hello my beautiful friends!
In today’s vlog I’m sharing with you some of the most magical places of Italian Riviera.
Thanks to Alex for discovering all the beautiful places! It was like a dream – we had some fantastic quality time together an enjoyed life by the sea. I think that’s where I will end up one day.
Love,

Hello my beautiful friends!
Another year and another trip to Positano, Italy. I have been waiting all summer for this trip - it has become our special summer tradition.
There is a reason why we keep coming back for more – this is the most magical place for us, here our love story with Alex blossomed into a partnership for life. It’s hard to believe it’s already been 10 years since we got engaged here in Positano!
Read my Positano Travel Guide here to help you plan your travel.
Much Love,

Okay, I have to admit I never thought I'd love Portugal as much as I did. It was breathtaking, peaceful, I'd even go as far as to say - unforgettable! It took us a while to visit Portugal, mainly because it's not well advertised. Sadly, for this very humble and beautiful country. From my impression, there is still so much to see in this small, yet diverse place. This time we visited the Algarve region, mainly around Lagos beach. Alex and I are definitely planning to make our way back there and discover more.

Beaches we visited in this Vlog:
O Pescador Benagil was our favorite restaurant. We ended up going there twice. Very fresh and healthy food and very cute decor.
Eating out is a bit tricky for a non meat eater. I had to make sure that there is no bacon or meat added to dishes that sounded Vegetarian, as once I ordered this innocent rice dish that had bacon in it, even though the menu didn't list it.
Have you ever been to Portugal? I'd love to hear about your experience.
Much Love,

I still remember the first time we visited Rome, what must have been around 7 years ago. It all felt like a magical dream. From the moment we got there, I was in complete awe of this beautiful and ancient city. The culture, the people, the food - it's all so raw and real, fascinating and exciting. It's hard not to fall in love with it all.
This time we discovered a bit more here. We visited a Cat Bistro and a Cat Sanctuary. It was all Alex's idea, haha...I think he is a cat lover in disguise. :) haha
My favorite restaurant in Rome is Ginger. It's right near Spanish steps, so very convenient if you are exploring that part of town. They offer fresh healthy smoothies, salads and much more. All of the produce is organic and local.
If you go to Vatican, I recommend booking an Express tour (you have to do this ahead of time online). You can thank me later as this will save you hours and hours of waiting in the line up.
We stayed at this Air BnB - Get a $20 AirBNB credit if you sign up, using this link. All of us loved it so much. It's located in a great area, close to a farmer's market and lots of hip restaurants. The flat itself is clean and cozy with big windows and a balcony.
Have you been to Rome? What's your favorite thing about it?
Much Love,
