Looking Back, Looking Ahead

Posted On 2015-12-312017-01-25 By Suneecomment

It’s that time of the year again when people tend to sit back and ponder the inevitable passing of time, where we wonder where 2015 went in such a hurry and why we never got the time to do anything we had planned for the year. Inevitably, we still make lists about things we want […]

Inside the Doge’s Palace

Posted On 2015-12-272017-01-25 By Suneecomment

The Doge’s Palace, or Palazzo Ducale, is one of the iconic landmarks of the Piazza San Marco in Venice. For years I’ve been appreciating its Gothic architecture from the outside, but this year Gareth and I finally toured the interior as well.                         If […]

Following in Indy’s Footsteps and Meeting Da Vinci in Venice

Posted On 2015-12-202017-01-25 By Suneecomment

What does wold-renowned fictional archaeologist Indiana Jones and Renaissance genius Leonardo da Vinci have in common? As it turns out, the church of San Barnaba in Venice, it seems. Gareth and I, film buffs that we are, wanted to find where X marks the spot in one of our favourite movies, Indiana Jones and the Last […]

Three Lesser Known Venetian Islands

Posted On 2015-12-162017-01-25 By Sunee2 Comments

Most people who visit Venice also take the time to see Murano (the glass island) and Burano (the lace island), but few venture further than that. Since Gareth and I had decided to make it our mission to see a different side of the lagoon city this time, we hopped onto a vaporetto and explored […]

My Top 10 Highlights of Venice

Posted On 2015-12-062017-01-25 By Suneecomment

I’ve said many times before how much I love Venice. Not only is it a tourist’s paradise, and a shopper’s delight, but it is also a city filled with history and art and beautiful sights around every corner. So, without further ado, and in no particular order, here are my Top 10 Highlights of Venice […]

Veni Etiam Venezia

Posted On 2015-07-192017-01-25 By Suneecomment

For a long time now, Venice has been my secret fantasy. Whenever I have a rough day at work I think to myself, let’s just pack it all up and move to Venice. I have always wanted to live there, just for a few months, just to see what the city is all about when […]

Wherefor Art Thou, Fair Verona?

Posted On 2015-07-122017-01-25 By Suneecomment

We had a morning for Verona, we wished we had a whole week. A lesser-known jewel of Italy’s Veneto region, this charming city immediately claimed our hearts as we walked through its marble-paved streets following a hand-drawn map of the biggest highlights as recommended by our friendly host at Castion Veronese. It was only by […]

Gallivanting Around Lake Garda

Posted On 2015-07-052017-01-25 By Suneecomment

“Hurry! The ferry is waiting at the dock already!” “I don’t think we’re going to make it!” “There it goes. When is the next one due?” “Only two hours from now.”                         Gareth and I looked at each other in dismay. This was pretty […]

A Boy and His Red Stallion

Posted On 2015-06-212017-01-25 By Suneecomment

There was only one place Gareth insisted that we visited while touring through Italy – the Ferrari Museum in Maranello. Boys will be boys, and this one was giddy with excitement the moment we had parked and the first of the red stallions screamed past us. Apparently you can also pay to drive one of […]

Book Review: Great Journeys – Lonely Planet

Posted On 2015-06-172017-01-25 By Suneecomment

I absolutely loved Lonely Planet’s Great Adventures and couldn’t wait to get my hands on other books in the series. Great Journeys was published first and, while still a lot of fun, doesn’t quite live up to its successor. The book is divided into eight sections: Overland, Rail, Explorers & Conquerors, Rivers & Seas, Ancient Trade […]
