A day in Leeds

After two amazing days in York, it was time for another city. On our third day, we got up early to take the train from York to Leeds, a small city where we spent a brief time in on our very first day. It was a short day in which we visited the kitty cafe […]

A quiet day in York

7 July 2019.Reading time 10 minutes.

When traveling to England last year, our first stop was York. We would spend two days here but we decided we didn’t want to run from highlight to highlight.

13 June 2019.Reading time 6 minutes.

I absolutely fell in love with Venice. The city has been on my bucketlist forever but we decided to go there only a week before we actually did. And it was the most romantic trip. We walked in the rain at night, saw some of Venice’s highlights and took a gondola ride. In this post I’d […]
