I will forever be in love with Italian Cities ~ whilst I love the chaos and buzz of Rome and the artistic flare and hidden walkways of Venice, I always find myself gravitating back to Florence.

Rich in history, stunning architecture and the food (oh gosh – the food!), Florence has a unique way of having the buzz of a city but the quietness and laid-back vibes of the smaller towns and villages. You can spend hours wandering through the streets, eating gelato and the most incredible sandwiches. Or you can find a cosy rooftop terrace for some Tuscan wine or an Aperol Spritz.

Florence is perfect for Art, Science and History lovers – with so many museums and art galleries to explore. It is truly an amazing city.

One of the many things I love about Italy is how easy it is to city hop – you can get to so many different cities within a few hours on the Italian Rail system and each city has something unique about it – What are you waiting for?

Sardinia, the second largest island in the Mediterranean after Sicily and one of my favourite places in Italy!

The island is lush and beautiful with lots to see and do no matter when in the season you choose to visit.

I stayed last at Villa del Golfo, this is undoubtedly one of the islands best kept secrets.

Nestled into the side of a hill next to the tiny town of Cannigione where you can have a bite to eat or take the ferries over to different parts of the island.

Just a short transfer time from Olbia airport you are met with the warmest of welcomes, delicious food, and those amazing views over the bay where they even have their own yacht for day trips and swimming!

There’s nothing not to love about Puglia. A trip there can be as relaxed or as busy as you want it to be, and honestly, it’s been a long time since I’ve felt as at ease on holiday as I did on my visit to Puglia. Think quiet beaches, endless olive trees, little towns with whitewashed houses, and the friendliest locals.

For me, the perfect day is a morning spent exploring the gorgeous towns — places like Ostuni and Locorotondo are full of charm and history — followed by a few lazy hours by the pool or down at the beach. Absolute heaven. And the food and wine? Incredible. You have to try the local white wine, Fiano — I don’t think I had a bad meal the whole time I was there.

To really make the most of the area, a multi-centre trip is the way to go. Driving is easy, the roads are quiet, and the locals drive with a lot more patience than in other parts of Italy — a pleasant surprise! I can’t wait to help others discover this amazing part of Italy.

I have a passion for exploring new destinations and cultures. Over the years, I've had the pleasure of visiting many countries in Europe, as well as venturing further afield to destinations such as the United States and Mexico.

My love for travel has taken me to some of the world's most exciting and exotic destinations, allowing me to immerse myself in different cultures and connect with people from all walks of life.

Living in Slovenia means that I'm perfectly situated to explore the neighbouring countries of Croatia and Italy, which I regularly visit to discover new hidden gems and experience their unique cultures.

Sicily is a fascinating destination that offers a unique blend of culture, history, and natural beauty. This island is located in the heart of the Mediterranean, and it boasts a rich heritage that dates back to ancient times. With its stunning landscapes, delicious cuisine, and friendly locals, Sicily has everything a visitor could want.

Of course, no visit to Sicily would be complete without sampling the local cuisine. Sicilian food is renowned for its bold flavours and fresh ingredients, with dishes like pasta alla norma, arancini, and cannoli that are sure to tantalize your taste buds.

Whether you're interested in exploring ancient ruins, relaxing on the beach, or savouring delicious local cuisine, Sicily has something for everyone.

Venice is one of the most magnificent cities in Italy – not only is it beautiful, it’s also a hub for so much amazing culture. My top picks include St. Mark’s Square, a visit to the opera, and of course, a ride on a gondola. Venice is a city built on water, so be sure to try some of its excellent seafood dishes during your stay. Whether you’d like a shorter city break here or would like to include it as part of a longer multi-centre itinerary, we’re here to help.

The luxurious Ca'Sagredo Hotel is a magical place – dating from the 15th century, it has been declared a National Monument. The Restaurant L’Alcova serves traditional Venetian cuisine, and your stay here is sure to be unforgettable.
