For two weeks, we have gone through the big and small towns of Italy. This was Oliver’s and I’s first time in Italy. For this post, we wanted to share our journey through Italy from the northwest to the southwest towns/cities.

Copenhagen was all about the HYGGE. The atmosphere and the people of Denmark was everything you expect it to be… cozy and warm. We enjoyed our short stay in Copenhagen. From staying in a super modern hostel to going to a food hall to try good food.

The city of Amsterdam is a rising city among many, from college students to digital nomads. We listed some highs, lows, places to see/visit, and thoughts on the red light district here in the bustling city of Amsterdam.

Porto… what a gem. The food is absolutely to die for, and the people here are so kind. We stayed in a hostel right in the city center and were able to explore lots of this city in a short amount of time. From best places to eat, things to eat, and places to see and visit… we have it all.

A 30-minute train ride from Lisbon and we have arrived in Sintra, Portugal. We stayed in Sintra for a day (a stop on our way to Porto). We have listed where we stayed, a nice cafe to stop by, and some sights to see.

As a couple, we are going out of the country for the first time. We are super excited to tell you guys the first destination we are heading to! We have included a small simple packing list for our 3-month backpacking trip to Europe in the fall months.
