Must remember this when trying to justify eating pizza too often! 😅

Science confirms: Pizza makes you happy🍕✨

Nutrition biologist Jolanda Grillone from the University of Salerno reveals that a key ingredient in pizza, tryptophan, found in both the mozzarella and dough, plays a crucial role in boosting happiness. Tryptophan is an essential amino acid that the body uses to produce serotonin, often dubbed the “happiness hormone” due to its positive impact on mood and well-being. 😍

So, next time you enjoy a delicious Margherita, remember, you’re not just treating your taste buds—you’re also giving your brain a happiness boost! 😋

Absolutely perfect!🏖

The quaint little town of Moneglia..

Just along the coast from me, via a long tunnel along the coast or a steep windy road from the hills above! On the main train line too so really accessible.

One of the beautiful hidden gems of Liguria, it's got my favourite beach in the whole area and some great fish restaurants.

Definitely worth a visit...!

This was always one of my favourite little corners of Corfu, and after 21 years I wasn't disapppinted!

DM me to find out where it is and I can help you organise your very own Greek getaway...

10/08/2024

☁️So, I'm back in the cool of the UK for a couple of weeks after my holiday in Corfu.

💡One of the things that occurred to me while I was travelling was this:

‼️Using a resort based travel agent to help you create, plan and book your holiday has more benefits than you might realise!

⚠️As well as being able to suggest and recommend places to go and things to do, we can also tell you where NOT to go, and some of the things to AVOID at or around your destination!

✅Alot of the time, we've been there and done it before you do... and if we haven't, we are part of a growing network of people who have...so we really CAN speak from experience!

🤔So... for starters - if you're thinking about a holiday to Corfu, DM me with any questions you might have and I'll get right back to you with my 'real' opinion and answers!

⛱️I'm off on my own holidays now, so I'll be swapping my pasta and tiramisu lifestyle for moussaka and retsina for the next couple of weeks... on the beautiful island of Corfu!😎

🫒It just so happens to be one of my all time favourite Greek islands... not only is it where I started my life overseas many moons ago but it's just got so much beauty ....from green hills full of olive groves, horse-shoe bays for lazy days by the sea, to the stunning archecture of Corfu Town... and so much more.🍹

🏡Italy may be my home, but Greece is always in my heart💗

I can't wait to get back there and explore... if the heat allows!🥵






See you back in Italy soon!

Having played host to some friends from the UK this week, it got me thinking about how going on holiday to a foreign country is as daunting as it is exciting...

🏩From choosing the right accommodation when you don't know a place 🤔

⏱️Making the most of your holiday time without wasting it figuring out train and bus timetables and missing out on the top things to do / sights to visit....⛲

☕To daily life abroad; where to get a decent cup of coffee or something to eat when there are so many choices, and even what to order when you fancy trying something local🍝

💡At Resort Experts, we can take care of all of that for you!
