Gucci kicked off Milan Fashion Week with a bang, in the most literal sense. For his Spring 2018 collection, designer Alessandro Michele transformed a Milan gallery space into the so-called "Gucci hub," a sprawling set that referenced a number of ancient cultures, including Roman, Indian, Aztec, and Egyptian styles. Guests were not only treated to [...]

Cala Goloritze, Sardinia Look out to sea at Cala Goloritze and you’ll be transported to the Caribbean. The beautiful bright aquamarine hue of the water and powdery white sand has to be seen to be believed. A Unesco Heritage site, there are no loungers and loud beach bars here, instead visitors come to unwind in [...]
Florence, capital of Italy’s Tuscany region, and land of the Renaissance, was as beautiful as I thought it would be, and more. We spent about two days just walking around, having the most delicious (HUGE) €5 sandwiches at All'antico Vinaio and creamy rich gelato at Gelatoteca Santa Trinita. The uber chic Gucci Museo and Gucci [...]

Better at night when there are many tourists but not too many to push you around. [...]
“60 years tradition on a corner” Locals and Tourists stand in line for the famous cafe. Yet,it costs double and then some to sit and enjoy your coffee on a table...a little bit odd for a Greek with thousands of cafes in all the Greek cities where you can sit and enjoy coffee. Anyway,who am [...]

Each night felt like sleeping in a museum and like members of a noble Florentine family surrounded by vaulted ceilings, astounding frescoes and stucco. Our stay was like none other, with impeccable service included. The [...]
“Charm History and Luxury” What is more to say about the Hassler,its location,its glamour,its luxury,its 3 bars and the unique view of Eternal City?? Just that it is as expensive as it gets for a good reason,it worths every penny and then some. Having spent a lot of time traveling around Europe and USA,I like [...]
“Elegant Fragrance and room design” The area Monti is very hip and full of trendy hotels,trattorias and beautiful little Roman streets. The hotel has an exquisite beautiful exterior in red color,a not so interesting lobby and sitting area and the rooms...at least the one I stayed was full of elegance,deep blue tapestry clean with beautiful [...]
