The excellence of Italian traditions, lifestyle and eye for beauty combined and squeezed into a tiny segment of 12 km square. That’s how I would call the picturesque town of Vernazza, proudly wearing the title of the most beautiful of Cinque Terre.

I have visited over 158 cities in 22 countries, but no other place can compare to the emotions that visiting Quinta da Regaleira in Sintra has awakened in me. Sintra is a gorgeous portuguese town situated less than an hour drive from Lisbon, the country’s capital.

Msc Virtuosa Cruise Costs Breakdown | How much did I pay for 10 days on a cruise
Money, money, money. What’s interesting is that it can be both a taboo and the main topic of interest and discussion at the same time. That could be because openly talking about money can very often be seen as something negative. Nevertheless, whenever I write a post breaking down the costs of my cruises or travels in general, it always seems to be the most read one in the whole…

Sarande Cruise Port Guide | What to see in Sarande while visiting on a cruise
The Albanian port of Sarande is included in some of the Eastern Mediterranean cruises, which typically include Greece and Italy as focal points. However, the hidden gem which I can safely call Sarande, also has a few irreplaceable views and experiences to offer.
