This week, I had the opportunity to visit Puglia, located in the south of Italy. We stayed in Giovinazzo at Hotel Riva Del Sole and spent five wonderful days exploring the region. Although our trip was relatively short, it offered the perfect combination of relaxation, culture and beautiful coastal scenery.

I have fallen more and more in love with Germany over the last couple of years. I used to consider it just a 'gateway' to get to Austria, but I never discovered the stunning nature it has to offer. What I love about Germany (well, actually Europe in general) is the love for food & beverage. Gathering on a terrace, enjoying the view with a drink, getting together.We live close to the border so we travel to Germany easily (I am so blessed). MUST check out; 🇩🇪 Monschau 🇩🇪 Neurenberg 🇩🇪 Trier 🇩🇪 Cologne (Köln) 🇩🇪 Berlin 🇩🇪 Dresden🇩🇪 Stuttgart🇩🇪 Leipzig 🇩🇪 Düsseldorf

Frequent road trips to Poland and Czech Republic, visited across different seasons — from summer trips to winter stays during the Christmas markets.

A stay on Lopud, a small, car-free island just off the coast near Dubrovnik.

A long-standing connection with Austria, shaped by frequent visits from a young age.

A strong personal preference for Spain, shaped by multiple visits across different regions.

A stay on the island of Sicily, exploring both coastal and nearby city locations.

Exploring both the Italian- and German-speaking regions of Switzerland offers a clear contrast in atmosphere, landscape, and culture within a relatively small distance.

A road trip through Portugal in 2023, exploring two of its most iconic cities: Porto and Lisbon.

In 2023, we did a fast-paced route through Central and Southeast Europe, covering Germany, Austria, Slovenia, Croatia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Montenegro, Albania, Greece, North Macedonia, Serbia, Hungary and Slovakia.

Utah is defined by contrast — mountains, desert landscapes, and vast open space.

Montana feels like space.Wide, quiet, and grounding in a way that’s hard to explain.

Colorado feels like movement.Fresh air that wakes you up, landscapes that stretch in every direction, and a kind of energy that makes you want to go outside and just experience.

Idaho surprised us in the softest way.Rexburg felt calm, almost tucked away — like a pause between bigger moments.

Wyoming feels wide. Open in a way that’s hard to explain until you’re in it. It al looks so peaceful and clean, I loved it. Cheyenne carries that same energy — simple, steady, and real. We visited the state capitol and met the kindest people that gave us an entire private tour through the building. 

There’s something about New Mexico that feels ancient and alive at the same time. In Santa Fe, everything moves a little slower — the colors, the light, the air. Earth tones everywhere, soft adobe walls, and a quiet kind of warmth that settles into your body.

Texas continues to amaze me.  Yesterday we explored Big Bend National Park and the beauty of nature there is simply unbelievable, endless desert landscapes, dramatic mountains and the most magical light. We had the loveliest day just taking it all in and enjoying the stillness of this incredible place.

North Carolina felt like the perfect closing chapter to our journey.

Alabama felt like stepping into a place you somehow already knew.

Florida feels like pure light.

Louisiana might just be my favorite state.

Mississippi is not a place that immediately reveals itself.

Arkansas was one of those places that quietly surprised me. We spent some time at Daisy State Park, a beautiful and peaceful spot surrounded by nature. It’s the kind of place where everything slows down. The water is calm, the air feels softer, and there’s this sense of stillness that you don’t often realize you need until you’re in it.

Please, trust me. Once you visit the United States, Oklahoma cannot be skipped. I already fell in love with it two years ago, when we first traveled there. We went to Hochatown, and visited a Rescue Center and Petting Zoo. We went back this time, we just had to see if the same people were working there and if we recognized some of the animals. And we actually did!

In Nevada, long desert roads are combined with highly concentrated city life.

Arizona is defined by desert landscapes, heat, and wide open space.

Travel through California offers a mix of coastline, cities, and natural landscapes.
