Since moving to London a year and a half ago, I've gathered a list of my favorite things to do in London, including restaurants, museums, and iconic markets.

The countryside of Ireland is breathtakingly beautiful — an unreal mix of California, Hawaii, and Iceland. The coastal vistas bring me back to California’s Highway One, the jagged mountains scrape the clouds like Kauai’s jurassic mountains, and the loping green mountainsides are taken straight from Iceland.

Whether you’re drawn to its ancient castles, dramatic coastlines, lively music scene, or warm and welcoming people, Ireland promises a journey filled with unforgettable memories. Here’s the perfect 14-day road trip itinerary for that journey.

With so many things to do, it can be easy to spend three days enjoying Barcelona, only to get home and realize you missed some of the must-see attractions the city has to offer. Fear not, though, because this 3-day itinerary has you covered, with options to extend your vacation or tweak to your liking.

Barcelona’s allure lies in its mix of history and modernity, drawing travelers to its vibrant streets and diverse neighborhoods. The question of where to stay is pivotal, shaping your experience of the city. In this guide, I’ve combed through Barcelona’s hundreds of hotels and narrowed them down to a few great properties, organized by neighborhood and budget.

Amboise was such a cute town, and the food was amazing. In the center of town is Château Royal d’Amboise, which you should definitely make a stop at.

The best thing we did in the Loire Valley was convince my mom to join us for a sunrise hot air balloon ride. The morning we went, there was dense fog and mist from the night before, making for jaw-dropping views as we saw the fog rising from the towns and gathering over the Loire River.

The Loire Valley, often referred to as the “Garden of France,” is a picturesque region west of Paris, known for its stunning chateaus, charming villages, and world-class vineyards. Here’s a week-long itinerary to make you feel like a prince or princess, king or queen.

In 2014, three big names in gastronomy founded Disfrutar, a 2*-Michelin restaurant, in Barcelona. In 2022, they opened a sister restaurant, Compartir. We went there for lunch, and I think it will soon be either Bib Gourmand or earn a star.

Italy’s Amalfi Coast is easily one of my favorite places on earth. With its stunning coastline, charming villages, and delicious cuisine, it has a magic that makes me want to return year after year. If you’re headed to this magical region, here is a 7 day itinerary for you.

Brat is one of those restaurants where the moment you walk in, you begin to celebrate food and chefs. The open kitchen welcomes you to watch turbots turned in cages over the flames, beef leaking fat as it sizzles on the grill, and breads being popped in and out of the pizza oven, then decorated with olive oil and anchovies.

Asian Fusion is currently my favorite category of food, and Jikoni, a restaurant listed in every “What to eat in London” article I’ve read in recent months, does Asian Fusion with British, African, and Middle Eastern flavors. How could I say no?
