Northern Israel is filled with wonders and gems, both for scenic nature and historical spots. In my last tour of northern Israel I set out to try and explore a few new attractions I have not been to before, and
Taormina Sicily
Taormina was our first stop in Sicily. A gorgeous little old town overlooking the active volcano Etna mountain from afar, with a great stretch of sea side beaches down below, and mountain top fortresses to take in the view. We
Castillo de Gibralfaro : Malaga
Lots of great areas to explore and attractions to visit in Malaga, but to me the number one attraction – by far – was the Castillo de Gibralfaro. It’s right at the center, and quite a hike up the mountain, but

Prizren : Kosovo
Prizren is a lovely little town in Kosovo with lots of history, which has surprisingly been able to avoid some of the horrible destruction that went on during the Kosovo wars. The main city area holds a few interesting historical
