Catania in Sicily may be located on the coast, but it’s Mount Etna that steals the show. From here, you can easily take a trip to Etna, but Catania itself is definitely worth visiting too. The city center is on the UNESCO list for good reason, and the food culture will make you want to stay at least another month.
Etna is Europe’s most active volcano, and you can actually see it up close. So, if you’re in Sicily, you absolutely must reserve some time to see Etna. You can ski there, hike there, and drink wine. I’m happy to share my tips for visiting Etna, plus how I experienced my sunset Etna tour and wine tour.
Most tourists skip right past Enna. Honestly, I’m fine with that because it means I get to have this Sicilian mountain village almost all by myself. But you should consider going there too: the mountain town offers a welcome change from the typical sun-sea-beach vacation. So go ahead and book a night in Enna, and I’ll gladly tell you what you can do there.
Craving delicious food AND cocktails this weekend? Amsterdam is bursting with spots to enjoy brunch and sip unlimited mimosas. Aka: a boozy brunch! I’ve put my liver to the test (someone’s gotta do it!) and found the best places for you. Here’s to your weekend… and the afternoon naps that follow!
Unpredictable weather? Check. Sheep? Check. Green hills? Check. Incomprehensible accent? Absolutely. But that’s just scratching the surface of what Northern Ireland has to offer. So, with two friends, I rent a car to see as much of Northern Ireland as possible in a short time. If you’re looking for an awesome route through Northern Ireland with plenty of nature, you’ve found the right blog.
The water of the Alcantara river is freezing cold, and I mean FREEZING cold. But that doesn’t stop me from wading further into the gorge, because shuffling along the lava walls is a unique experience. Well, maybe not as unique as I’d like to think, since quite a few people know about this gorgeous gorge in western Sicily.
