Europe

30 April marked our 1 year travel anniversary, and we took a look at our expenses so far – how much we have spent, where the money went, and what our average per day spend has been in each country.

Being on the road every day of the year means we stay at countless hotels along the way. For all the run-of-the-mill spots, there are the absolute gems which tick all the boxes. This week’s hotel tip: Hesperia Sevilla in Seville, Spain.

Join me on a culinary tour of Lombardy and Veneto, the two regions in northern Italy I visited this year. You’ll be surprised how much more there is than pizza and pasta!

In my new series, I am introducing you to lesser known tourist destinations in Germany – places that are hidden gems because of their natural beauty but still not overrun with tourists.
