Where coastal coves are aplenty, tapas nights happen on street sides, and the market days of our next base Santanyi, spill out to every last laneway.

For the last ten days of our trip, we’ve headed to the Spanish island of Mallorca, where we will split our time between staying within the mountains and the coast.

From the moment we arrived at Ca N'ai, we were enchanted by the property's rustic charm. The grounds were dotted with fruit trees and buzzing bees, with walls adorned by climbing vines.

Knowing the island of Santorini is known for being insufferably busy, we came prepared with a strategy to make the most of our three-night stay here.

When we first landed in Greece, a local told us that Milos was his favourite of all the islands — it's now mine too.

Regardless of being so far into our trip, Paros is so darn pretty it sparked those first day-like moments of glee.

You just have to pick the right place to stay, explore the streets earlier, and leave the beach club before the ‘club’ overrides the ‘beach’ part.

Our time in Italy is almost ending, and after thirty-odd days in this perpetually picturesque country, we're so lucky to have spent this past week here in Positano.

Day outing to the towns of Minori and Amalfi gave both my calves and curiosity a good workout.

For two people that like to have things planned to a T ahead of time, our last-minute week stay in Ischia has really given kudos to having a little spontaneity.

Our time in Ischia has been made all the more dreamlike by our stay at Luxury Relais Villa Magdalena.

Checking out of Villa Loggio marks the halfway point of our travels as we head from Italy’s countryside to the coast.
