As I prepare to embark on my next vacation, I thought I would share my last travel experience with you, which was Turks & Caicos in July of 2021. I was on a familiarization trip, meaning I was exploring properties and learning the destination so I could speak to it with my clients. Turks & Caicos has some of the most beautiful waters. Those pictures of the blues and the greens are just stunning.
Richard and I stayed at the Savoia Hotel Regency in Bologna in 2017. It’s a beautiful hotel that feels very fancy but has great prices. Our favorite restaurant in Bologna was Garganelli restaurant in the hotel. This restaurant is all about a refined and elegant environment. The space is modern and classic at the same time.
Who doesn’t love weekend getaways? In the busyness of life sometimes your dream vacation has to take a back seat, but a weekend getaway can be just the thing to leave you feeling refreshed and connected to your partner or family. This week I’m going to share a few of my favorite places to escape for a long weekend.
Today I thought I might share one of my favorite itineraries – to Italy! Italy – Mi Amore! I adore Italy, as most of you probably know. It’s my favorite country and where I love to go. So I thought maybe sharing my itinerary would inspire you as well!
So what does that mean? As of today, September 3rd, 2021, nothing! None of the countries have rolled back their policy to not allow Americans into their countries. Each individual country gets to decide for themselves if they will allow us in or not. It also means they choose if they wish to add any new rules to their entry process.
So what is new on the EU Vaccination Announcements? On Monday, August 30, 2021, the EU announced that they “might” recommend the US to be removed from the safe countries to accept into their countries. Of course, this was another “oh no” moment for me, a travel advisor who focuses on this region. The next day, they recommended that the US not travel to the EU except for nonessential travel. The reason for this was the rising number of cases of covid-19 again among the unvaccinated people in the USA.
This week’s blog is about why I love to travel. I grew up without much money. Travel to me meant being in a car for many hours, bored and squished with my siblings. As a teenager, my goal in life was to travel. I didn’t want to have kids. I just wanted to see as many places as I could. Of course, that wasn’t how my life went. I had kids (which I am extremely thankful for) and I didn’t travel a lot until much later. I feel like I am still making up for lost time now as an empty nester. I love to travel and I cannot get enough new experiences!
