The funniest thing about my disastrous trip from Naples to Capri by fast boat is how easily it could be avoided. My friend Megan had specifically warned me about the rough boat journey between Naples and Capri, especially in the winter months when I visited Capri (specifically, early March). She’s emetophobic and, miraculously, still one…
The icon and most enduring image people have of Puglia, charming Alberobello feels ripped out of the pages of a storybook. It’s ticking all the Puglia boxes, with ancient olive trees and rolling hills. And the beauty of the landscape is the perfect backdrop for the town’s unique draw: the stone, white-washed trulli dwellings that…

If you’re visiting Italy, Venice is one of those can’t-miss cities. It may be cliché, but all the hype is there for a reason. How can it not be? The bustle and beauty of Saint Mark’s Square and its many landmarks and the gondola rides through the Grand Canal are out of this world! That…

This is where you’ll find some of Italy’s most classic wines, including the delicious, prized Amarone — a collector’s favorite for its ability to age the distance. Alongside Prosecco wine (which grows in…
Sicily is synonmyous with sun-drenched beach towns, ancient hilltop cities, UNESCO World Heritage Sites practically around every bend… but if you ask me, the real showstopper? The food and wine. Especially when you’re sipping authentic Italian wines on the slopes of an actual (and active!) volcano. Of course, that volcano is none other than the…
Note as of May 9: The Conclave is over and there is a new Pope! However, the Sistine Chapel will still be closed for a few more days. I made a rookie mistake on my first solo trip to Italy: I showed up to the Vatican without a ticket, fully convinced I could just waltz right in….
There’s a reason why Positano is the Amalfi Coast’s poster child. Pastel houses spill down the cliffs toward the coast, lemon trees dot the terraced hillside, the turquoise sea gleams almost anywhere you are in the town, and every corner seems perfectly engineered for a photograph. I mean, come on. I’ve visited Positano in both…

When most people think of Positano, they picture summer in full swing— teal-and-orange striped umbrellas lining the beach, sun-drenched Aperol spritzes, and long, lazy days soaking in the sea. But Positano isn’t only a summer destination… in fact, I personally really loved it in March. OK, granted, March won’t show you Positano at its most…
Following the coast near Palermo, you’ll see dramatic landscapes give way to stunning sandy beaches, colorful beach umbrellas, and vibrant teal waters. Nearly every beach you see will invite you to plop down with a book and stay a while, but it’s hard to choose which to visit, especially if you have a shorter stay…
