Croatia has been on our bucket list for some time, but we didn’t realize how much cheaper it would be if we flew to Milan first (note: your mileage may vary depending on flight prices at the time of booking). This itinerary starts with 4 days in Italy, making Milan our home-base and taking day trips, and then heads over to Croatia for the remainder of the trip.
Itineraries
The Best of Vancouver in 4 Days
Perched on the Pacific Coast and surrounded by mountains, lies the cosmopolitan, yet outdoorsy city of Vancouver, British Columbia. Vancouver is a great place to explore any time of year (but expect rain). However I would recommend visiting from June to September when life moves outside! You will be able to make the most of your time at the beach, hiking trails, and enjoy the outdoor restaurants and breweries.
Venice in One Day (from Milan)
The romantic city of Venice, built on over 100 islands, is one of Italy’s must-see locations. Unfortunately, the city is sinking, and as sea levels rise, flooding is becoming more and more commonplace. Many believe that Venice will one day be entirely underwater, so we encourage you to go visit while you still have the chance!
Cinque Terre in One Day (from Milan)
Cinque Terre, or five towns, is the name given to the collective group of fishing villages located along the coast of the Italian Riviera. With blue waters and colorful houses, this destination should not be missed! While staying longer is definitely an option, I only had one day to work this into my itinerary, so I did my best!
Traveling through Alaska by Land and Sea
Alaska was always a bucket-list destination for us. This gorgeous state offers an array of adventures with its rugged mountains, glaciers, and an abundance of wildlife. If you’re going to spend the time getting here, we recommend a minimum of a week’s stay. We planned an 11-day getaway through the ‘Last Frontier’ and it continues to be one of our most asked about destinations! Before booking your trip, we have a few tips for you to consider.
How to Spend a 24 Hour Layover in Dublin
After spending a week traveling through Belgium and the Netherlands, my flight back home had a 24 hour layover in Dublin. I decided to use that time to get out and explore the best of what Dublin has to offer!
Your Perfect Guide to Belgium and the Netherlands
Let me start off by saying that I did this trip TOTALLY alone (solo female traveler!) and felt completely safe the entire time. If you haven’t traveled alone before, this would be a good itinerary to start with.
How to Make the Most of Your Time in Tahiti
Ever wonder what it was like to travel to one of the most sought-after honeymoon destinations? Well, we did, and it was not on either one of our honeymoons. If you love adventure and relaxation, this is the trip for you! Keep in mind that this is a honeymoon destination, so coming across solo travelers is…rare!
The BEST Guide to Salzburg, Austria
Whether you’re backpacking around Austria, or traveling here on a short trip, this country has a ton to offer for everyone! Foodies will enjoy tasting the schnitzels and strudels, while architecture enthusiasts will want to soak in the cathedrals dating back to centuries ago. Classical music lovers will feel right home tracing the footsteps of countless musicians that crossed through Salzburg and Vienna. And adventure seekers could get lost in the Alps for days!
How to Have the Best Girl’s Trip in Puerto Rico
What’s better than celebrating your 30th birthday in the Caribbean?! We decided to take a 4 day weekend and celebrate in Puerto Rico, a diverse, tropical island known for its clear-water beaches, rainforest, hiking, and wildlife.
