Hi friends, welcome back to my Switzerland series! On our first full day in Switzerland, I looked out the window and there wasn’t a cloud in the sky! Jon and I planned a day trip to the top of Mount Titlis so this was a welcome sight to see. We grabbed some coffee from the…

Hi friends, welcome back to my Italy series! It probably comes as no surprise that a hike in the Amalfi Coast was one of my top priorities, and hiking the Path of the Gods (Il Sentiero degli Dei in Italian) lived up to my high expectations. The name of this trail comes from the myth…
Hi friends, welcome back to my Italy series! After two overcast days in Positano, we finally woke up to rays of sunshine and blue skies. It seemed like we had woken up in a totally different place. The water had the prettiest blue sparkle and was exactly like all the pictures of Positano I’d seen.…
Hi friends, welcome back to my Italy series. After a peaceful hour exploring Villa Cimbrone, Jon and I made our way back to the center of Ravello. It's a very tiny and quiet town with a main square, souvenir shops, and restaurants lining the streets. It seemed the ratio of pottery stores to residents was…
