Photo Tour of Lake Como - Italy

April 26, 2016/ Brea Darnell

A Weekend Trip to Menaggio, Bellagio, and Varenna

Lake Como is worth the hype. George Clooney, I get it. I would happily live in one of those villas for the rest of my life. I don't know why I go to cities when amazing places like this exist. Combined with the beautiful Italian architecture and with the Mediterranean feel it just doesn't get any better. We drove south from Stuttgart, Germany and drove right through Switzerland and into Italy. It's amazing how much the scenery changes. Going from farmlands and an Alpine type of climate to a more humid and warmer climate with palm trees and completely different landscaping. It's surreal.

January 26, 2016/ Brea Darnell

JURASSIC. PREHISTORIC. SERENE. WILD.

Iceland should be on everyone's bucket list. Even if you only go once, it's just so different from any place I've traveled.

This is a beast of a post. If you're wondering if there's anything for you here is the gist: Golden Circle, Gullfoss, Thingvellir, Strokkir Geysir, Reykjavik, whale watching, horseback riding, Vik and the Black Beach, Kerið Crater, almost a glacier, Seljalandsfoss, and Skogafoss.

Our Captain Morgan Jeep Safari Tour: Malta

August 03, 2015/ Brea Darnell

For Malta we decided to do a Jeep Safari Tour with the largest tour company in the area. We saw most of the island's highlights in just one day. While I don't always love the organized fun, I have found that doing these smaller tours are much more personal and end up being a lot more enjoyable than the large tour bus travel. And with the added bonus that you get to cover a lot of ground in a short amount of time.

Photo Tour on the Island of Gozo, Malta

July 21, 2015/ Brea Darnell

The easiest way to explore Gozo, one of the islands in Malta, is through one of the hop on hop off tours. There are two companies that compete so you can barter to try to get the best price. Once you get off the ferry you'll be bombarded with people trying to sell you the best deal.

Traveling to Malta in the Winter: Where to Stay, Must See's, Travel Tips and More!

March 20, 2015/ Brea Darnell

I flew into Malta with zero expectations of the country. I did my bit of pre-departure research and looked up some good spots for photos, places to see, food to eat, but that was all. I knew that Malta had some of the oldest archaeological sites to visit, and some of the oldest history as well. Flying over the islands and into Malta gave

Malta In Photos and Some Observations

January 21, 2015/ Brea Darnell

Malta, what a fascinating and confusing place. A mix of cultures throughout history that found themselves on these islands. Islands not tropical, nor lush by any means, but full of vegetation and limestone. Some say that Malta is the lost Atlantis, evident by all the cliffsides that drop straight to the ocean.
