Two Days in Venice ✨

Venice, the capital of northern Italy’s Veneto region, is built on more than 100 small islands in a lagoon in the Adriatic Sea. It has no roads, just canals – including the Grand Canal thoroughfare – lined with Renaissance and Gothic palaces.

Day One

📍The colourful houses of Burano
The perfect picture moment! The island’s history as a fishing community. Venice Lagoon’s thick fog made navigating a challenge for local fishermen. To find their way back to town, they painted the houses in bright colours to stand out in the mist.

📍Libreria Acqua Alta
The name itself even means “Book Store of High Water.” You have to see the bookstore that due to flooding keeps its books in bathtubs and a gondola! This whimsical place needs to be seen and experienced.

📍Caffe Florian
Italy is known for its coffee. With every sip you enjoy, take in the rich history and breathtaking interior, a place where Venice and the world meet.

📍Grand Canal
Enjoy a Gondola ride and take in the sights from the water. Another alternative is the Vaporetto, aka Venetian water bus. Do both! Enjoy the afternoon on the water.

Day Two

📍Ponte dell’Accademia
The Ponte dell’Accademia is home to one of the most iconic views in all of Venice–don’t forget to capture the stunning vistas.

📍Piazza San Marco
Venice’s largest and most famous piazza is certainly among the most Instagrammable places in Venice. Explore every corner! The interiors are magnificent and breathtaking.

📍Le Mercerie
It’s time to explore the delights of shopping in Venice. Le Mercerie is the main shopping area in Venice, centrally located between Rialto Bridge and St. Mark’s Square. Here you’ll find streets lined with shops and stalls selling souvenirs, clothing, jewellery and art.

📍St. Mark’s Basilica
St. Mark’s Basilica is ridiculously beautiful–and perhaps one of the most unique churches in Italy. Built mostly in a Byzantine style with Venetian twists. A sight to behold.

📍St. Mark’s Campanile
The lovely tower standing tall in Piazza San Marco is St. Mark’s Campanile, and while the tower itself is certainly worth a few photos, it’s the view from the top that truly deserves to be considered one of the most beautiful places in Venice.

Have you been to Venice before? Let me know your most loved places below.

Havana, ooh na-na 💃

When you hear Havana it’s impossible not to hear ooh na-na after it. The traditional Spanish architecture, classic American cars, and tropical climate all contribute to the charm of this city, which is sometimes referred to as the Rome of the Caribbean. Visit Havana for the culture, music, food, festivals, and gorgeous sights.

Kanarra Falls, Utah.

You need permits for this hike, which are available online for $12 per person.

Only 150 people are allowed in each day to reduce overcrowding and all its associated issues.

This is about a 4-mile roundtrip hike into a slot canyon with two waterfalls. The hike is fairly easy but does involve walking on rocks in the cold flowing water of Kanarra Creek

Two-Days in Malaga🌴

As the largest city in the Costa del Sol, Málaga is a dynamic city that thrives under perennial sunshine and fine weather. This 2 days in Málaga itinerary is perfect for those looking to explore the city and enjoy all that it has to offer.

Day One

📍City Centre Sites
The first day of your Málaga itinerary sees you getting the lay of the land and stopping by some of the city’s main sites. Make sure to pack some good walking shoes along with your beach gear, as you’ll certainly need them after today!

📍Free Walking Tour
Free walking tours are always our first stop when exploring a new city as they help you both to get your bearings and take you by the biggest tourist attractions in the city. You will also get an overview of the city’s history and some local recommendations, at times, as well.

📍Alcazaba de Málaga
Alcazaba is a Moorish fortress and palace overlooking the city and port. It is quite large and sprawled out over hills, allow at least an hour to explore it,

📍Picasso Museum
Picasso was born in Málaga and lived in the city for a large portion of his childhood. Because of the city’s pride, there is a small museum that is home to several works by Picasso throughout his long career. You won’t see his major works here but never the less a beautiful place to visit.

Day Two

📍Mercado de Atarazanas
Though the Mercado de Atarazanas, Málaga’s central market, certainly sees its fair share of tourists, you’re going to see that the majority of the people doing the shopping here are locals. You will find everything from freshly caught seafood, butcher’s counters, cured meat and cheese counters, olive sellers, and fresh fruits and vegetables.

📍Malagueta Beach
La Malagueta is the closest beach to the city centre.

This dark sandy Blue Flag beach stretches for 1.2 km between the Port of Málaga and La Caleta Beach. Its oceanfront promenade is lined with towering palm trees that are occupied by vocal parrots. It’s the perfect place to relax and enjoy grilled fish.

📍Take a sunset catamaran cruise
Taking a one-hour boat cruise is one of the most popular things to do in Málaga. What could be a better end to your weekend break than watching the sunset over the sea whilst sipping a chilled glass of Cava.
