We called a tiny town just north of Venice home for over seven years, yet we hardly ever wrote about the place we came to know like the back of our hands. For travel writers like us, it’s easy to forget that what is in your own backyard is sometimes a place people save up […]
The Do-It-Yourself Tour of Pompeii
You know it. The tour with the guide holding up a sign, umbrella or some other object so you don’t lose your group. Though it doesn’t really matter if you do lose your group – it’s so large, you have to battle your way to the front to even hear what the guide is saying. […]
The Best Wine Destinations Beyond Bordeaux
There are over 70 wine-producing regions in the world. Narrowing down where to go on a wine holiday is sometimes tough. And while we obviously love Bordeaux since we call the World Capital of Wine home, it’s always good to explore and drink more than the usual suspects. So pack a bag and leave plenty […]
How to Take a Verona Day Trip from Venice
Just about an hour from Venice sits a beautiful Italian city along the Adige River. A decade ago when we first moved to Italy, Verona was hardly more than a setting in William Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet and a city often overlooked on most traveler’s Italy itinerary. Though there’s actually little evidence that the star-crossed […]
Discover the Real Venice on a Venice Food Tour
Venice is famous for many things: the Rialto, the Grand Canal, the over-the-top costumes of Carnival. But Venice is infamous for some things to, particularly for expensive and bad food that barely resembles Italian food. We won’t kid you and say that we haven’t experienced a stop-your-heart bill for what you’re certain was a frozen […]

The Best Places to Stay on the Amalfi Coast
A narrow winding road leads to villages precariously perched along cliffs. The blue Mediterranean dazzles below. Colorful striped parasols dot the tiny inlets that make up the beaches. Easily Italy’s most famous and chicest stretch of coastline, soaking up la dolce vita on the Amalfi Coast is on many a traveler’s bucket list. Stretching for […]
4-Day Rome Itinerary for the Food Lover
Rome wasn’t built in a day – and it’s pretty much impossible to explore it in a day. But if you’re like us, you like to pack in as much as you can to a vacation. You likely have one week off of work, and if you’re traveling all the way to Italy you definitely […]
A Roman Pizza and Pasta Making Experience
So much Roma, so little time-a! Even with a grocery list sized checklist of monuments and sights to see in the Eternal City, you can’t leave Italy without at least one foodie experience. Food is a huge part of the culture, and one of the best souvenirs you can take home are your new skills […]
Hassle Free Rome and Venice with Globus
When it comes to travel, there are pretty much two camps of people: those who love to research and plan every detail and those who want a holiday without any of the hassle of actually planning it. I’m firmly planted in the first camp. I love devouring every blog, book and resource I can get […]
