villa deste tivoli

A day trip from Rome to Tivoli is highly recommended. There is a reason why the Villa d’Este is on the UNESCO World Heritage Site list. Federico had visited once as young boy with his family and remembered it as being beautiful. I was curious to find out exactly what was so grand about it. Since we had just a little over two weeks to spare on our vacation, I made a point to include it on our itinerary.

Rome of course has plenty of wonderful, historic places to visit, like the Vatican, Piazza Navona and the Colosseum to name a few, but step just a bit of the city and you see that the countryside is not lacking in beauty either. I decided on a DIY day trip from Rome to Tivoli to see the awe inspiring Villa d’Este. I was not disappointed at all and l don’t think you will be either. Here is your Tivoli day trip itinerary.

Marseille fort in France on our Marseille Guide

Marseille should definitely be on your list of places to visit in France. We had so many people, some who hadn’t even been, (including friends who lived in Bordeaux at the time) try to convince us not to go. Too dirty, too gritty, too ethnic. The list went on and on. Thank goodness we didn’t listen.

We found Marseille beautiful, the people really nice, and the history fascinating. You shouldn’t listen to the naysayers either. I always find it better to experience places for yourself. For instance, I didn’t love Amsterdam, definitely not as l had expected based on what others had told me, including Federico who had been at least a couple of times prior, but l am certainly not going to dissuade you from visiting. I can only relay my experience. Here’s is a kick-ass guide to Marseille City France :-)…

 bite of life year in review 2017 peles castle

Yeah. I know l said no new posts till the new year but l figured I’d wrap things up nice and proper for 2017 so we can start 2018 with a clean plate. This year has been calmer travel wise compared to 2016 when we visited 12 countries total and stayed a total of only 31 days in Spain!. It was exciting but frantic. We relished the chance to take it easy and l planned better for the year. Here is a wrap-up of what our year was like and how 2018 is shaping up.
