I have said it before. I love an island. Now that the crush of the summer season is winding down I am planning my autumn adventures. On my next trip to Venice I am going to explore the outlying islands. There are more than thirty islands that dot the Venetian lagoon, some like the Guidecca, and Murano are well known but there are so many more to discover.
My boy is home for the first time in 219 days. I am going to take a little break from the blog this week and enjoy these last lazy days of August.
I will be back in September with lots to tell you about some great beach clubs in Ponza and Capri and I have all kinds of new adventures planned in Tuscany and Torino.
I won't be completely unplugged. Follow me over on Instagram and Snapchat for your daily dose of Italy.
My friend Holly and I have had a long running disagreement about the best pizza in Capri. We both swear on a particular place and we are both sure we are 100% right. On my last trip I decided to listen to my friend, who by the way lives on the island and has a Caprese husband, and see for myself is there another great pizza to be had in Capri?
I am happiest by the sea. The smell of salt and sea are like vitamins to me. I try to spend as much time at the beach as is humanly possible, even in winter. But sometimes, even though it is quite easy to get to the beach from Rome, it is just not always practical.
Last week on one of the hottest days of the summer I was invited to spend the day by the pool at the Rome Cavalieri Resort and while I am most definitely still a beach girl, I have to say I am happy to add this to my sunny repertoire.
If you have been here on my blog before you know how much I love Venice. I have been so lucky in the past twelve months to spend a lot of time there. In my many trips up north to the beautiful watery city I have learned a few things. Do you have a trip to Venice planned? Follow my lead and you can make the most of your time in Venice.
It's that time of year again. Rome in August, love it or hate it there are a few things you need to know.
