In 300 days of travel, we have had some amazing ups and disappointing downs, and share with you here our top & flop moments, travel mishaps, favorite experiences and travel recommendations.

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!

The first stop on my European train adventure this month? Amsterdam! I rediscovered my love for this beautiful city with its maze of canals and historic merchant buildings.

My favorite experience last week? Seeing the legendary, crazy Christmas lights in Brooklyn’s Dyker Heights neighborhood! Merry Christmas, everyone…

The Via Amerina is an ancient Roman road that brings you from Assisi to Rome, passing through the rolling hills of Umbria and walking through small Italian towns…

Looking for an exquisite place to stay in Playa del Carmen? My recommendation: the wonderful, luxurious beachside Grand Hyatt Resort in the heart of Playa.

The second part of my walk along the ancient Via Amerina to Rome. We’re now in Latium, getting closer to the papal audience in Rome, our final destination.
