Ireland

The Ultimate Guide to The Cliffs of Moher

It is no secret that I love Ireland. I have been there four times already and I am always looking forward to going back. Luckily, one of my best friends moved there last year so I get to visit more often! The second time I visited Ireland it was with the aforementioned friend while she was still living in France. We both decided to go to Dublin for Halloween and take a few trips to Galway, the Cliffs of Moher, Belfast and the Giant’s Causeway. Needless to say it was a pretty packed 5-day holiday!

Malta

5 Days in Malta: Ultimate Travel Guide & Itinerary

Last summer, one of my friends and I decided to go to Malta for a much needed holiday. It was my first time in Malta and I was completely struck by this country’s beauty. Whether you are spending a week there or coming for a weekend break, Malta has plenty to offer. What is also great about this destination is that it remains a place undiscovered by mass tourism in Europe. Which I don’t really understand why now that I know about the magic of this place! Ruled by almost everyone from the Romans, Sicilians, Phoenicians, French and most recently the British, Malta has a rich and vibrant culture. The country has some of the oldest buildings ever created, wonderful and atypical landscapes, lovely beaches, great food and friendly people.
