Parma
Parma is a lovely, quaint little city. While I don’t have many photos, since we quickly passed through, the FOOD is worth a mention!

Azores Islands
The Azores Islands are located off the coast of Portugal and offer miles of green rolling hills, separated by man made rock walls. There are plenty of outdoor activities and things to explore on these little beauties! The islands seem quite unspoiled by tourists and have a very authentic feel to them.

San Gimignano, Italy
San Gimignano has probably been my favorite Tuscan town. The towers shooting up to create its skyline makes it striking to see from far away and being that it is on a hilltop gives fabulous views that stretch over Tuscany. In peak season go early to avoid the busses full of tourists…turns out, its lots of people’s favorite Tuscan town!

Siena, Italy
Siena is a perfect central location to see the southern part of Tuscany. Larger than many of the hilltop towns, Siena has lots of nooks and crannies to explore and a train comes right into it – helpful if you don’t have a car!

Paris
Paris. I have such mixed emotions on this city. It intimidates me like no other, it frustrates me beyond belief and I hate to say but I have experienced many of the stereotypes to be true. However, behind all of this, as you explore the city you will come upon a little street or a quaint shop and the Paris you imagined will be found there.
