Malta is located in the Mediterranean Sea, south of Sicily (Italy), it consists of three islands: Malta, Gozo and Comino. The…

I love intimate dining experience sitting at the open kitchen watching the hustle and bustle. There is never a dull moment in view. My sister shares the same passion for food and she took me to the 1-Michelin Starred VEA Restaurant for my birthday. This 12-course tasting menu not only was elegant and bold, but…

My sister highly recommended a trip to Vietnam from her past experience and I was intrigued. Going to Ho Chi Minh with my girlfriends is the best way to do it. We all appreciate food, beer, wine, spa, and shopping, just not so much the heat. First stop, we went to the famous Ben Thanh…

I have come to develop a deep love for Vietnamese food and a certain affection for their culture. Vietnam is always a city that I want to visit and why not begin this journey in Ho Chi Minh. To be honest, I was really looking forward to having an authentic great bowl of pho, but…

In the past 10+ years, I have the pleasure to travel to Montreal at least once a quarter on business. I love this city, I love the people, it’s like my second home. Montreal is a multicultural city with a deep food culture – from smoke meat (Schwartz’s Deli, Dunn’s, Rueben’s), poutine (Poutineville, practically everywhere…

Florence is one of the most inspiring, extraordinary cities I have visited. I was partly inspired by Giada De Laurentiis (with her show Giada in Italy). And because this is a solo trip, I immediately think of Airbnb Experiences and Viator signing myself up for a wide range of activities. I am sure everyone expect…

I pretty much started my journey along Laugavegur, one of the oldest shopping streets. There are many outdoor clothing chains selling the famous Icelandic wool, some really cute Nordic design stores and of course the puffins and Vikings filled souvenir stores. You can’t miss the Hallgrimskirkja Church, it is visble from almost every part of…

I had the greatest opportunity to take on this last minute solo trip between jobs and I immediately booked my tickets through Delta for a direct flight to Iceland from Seattle (even better, I was using my miles to exchange for tickets). Visiting Iceland is always on my bucket list, especially going to the Blue…
