i spy eye candy! – Amalfi Coast

Email, RSS Follow

This week where in the world is lola? picked the EYE CANDY topic of the AMALFI COAST! i have had the pleasure of visiting Capri, Italy and looking back onto the gorgeous Amalfi Coast. let me just say, as much as i loved Capri, i longed to wrap that coastline during an afternoon road trip.

the BEST news is, I WILL be doing just that come November with Leah during our month-long Euro Tour. i look forward to my return to Italy and especially discovering this beautiful place where the land meets the sea. there has to be a good reason that it is the backdrop of so many plot lines in books and films. i can only imagine of the story lines i will have to share from my journey there.

where are you longing to go? what eye candy destination do you dream about? let me know!

ciao bella – lola

i spy eye candy! Rome

Email, RSS Follow

This week where in the world is lola? picked the EYE CANDY topic of ROME! may it tantalize your senses.  buon appetito!

ROME, if you want to. ROME, if you can! (i know this isn’t what the B-52’s meant but who cares?!) you really should go to ROME, if you can!

Rome was the center of the world at one time and has more history than i’ll ever be able to soak up in my lifetime. i have been fortunate to visit the ‘eternal city’ twice and am hoping to get back a 3rd time this fall on my Euro tour with Leah of LeahTravels. this time i just wanna wander aimlessly and not worry about hitting any one particular site. i will definitely go back to Piazza Navona – it’s my favorite square. also, on my list would snapping as many pics as possible of all the gorgeous fountains found EVERYWHERE in the city and i’m not speaking of all the big famous ones but all the little ones scattered about.

oh, ROMA – you spell AMOR backwards and i do love you so! what do you love about Rome? what eye candy might you like to have a taste of next? be sure to leave a note & let me know!

ciao – lola
