glauce goes to KATHMANDU
Nepal has been in my "country to visit" list for quite a while. I couldn't find the perfect time until my friend asked me to travel with her and explore the beautiful beaches in Sri Lanka. I agreed and introduced Nepal to be part of the itinerary. So, here we go! When you hear the word Nepal, what goes into your mind? For me, it's Mt Everest, the highest mountain in the world, which never failed to be mentioned during my classes way back in high school. Years later, I am wor

Limonaia la Malora
Have you visited a lemon garden before? Are you interested to see one? If you are, continue on reading because I will share my experience at Limonaia Antichissima Malora! Lemon gardens can be found all over Italy, but I choose to visit and know the lemon history at Limonaia Antichissima Malora because it is located in Gargnano. Gargnano is the place on Garda where the first experiments on the lemon orchards took place. The Franciscan brothers in the 12th century constructed t

My Packing Checklist
I am counting the days for my birthday trip in Italy. Couldn't stop imagining the smell of the coffee, the enticing pizzas and pasta varieties, mouth-watering gelatos, the delicious limoncellos, wines, Italian cheeses, Mediterranean olives and the sensational pastries and desserts! Above all, the romantic sceneries, beautiful houses, charming narrow alleys and the Italian sunshine that will make you wish you won't ever leave. But before making this imagination into a reality,
