Kate & Jack always look so happy 😀 I love the fact they are so well-cultured and enjoy various foods. Great parenting skills there Tamalyn 🙌🏻 I’ve screenshot your bucket list for places for me to visit when I stay in Lake Maggiore next month.

For some odd reason, they love having their photos taken! 😆 This was not always the case, so I’m very grateful. I can’t WAIT to see your photos from Lake Maggiore! Your travel photos always get me so excited – even if I can’t go I feel like I’ve been there – your description + photos are so good and spot on! 👍
This layout + photos are exquisite!! Wonderfull site! Very appealing
Thank you!! Hope you have a lovely Sunday!!
That is what I call great family time. You guys look like you had so much fun. I would be all smiles too. Great hat that you got.
Haha! For once, I didn’t have a MUST DO travel itinerary – well, asides from Villa Balbianello to get my Star Wars fix – we got to relax a lot on this little getaway.
I have to say, your blog is awesome. I love it. Super love the fonts. They’re my favorite
The photos are just stunning. I enjoyed reading your post. Everything here’s perfect.
Thank you, Wendy! This font always reminds me of reading the New York Times! Growing up, this paper was the first thing I saw at the breakfast table! My dad’s face was always buried in it. But he would always put it down when he saw me and hand me my favorite sections. We would both read while we munched on my mom’s amazing French toasts and scrambled eggs!
amazing pictures quality you have in this posts i am completely stoned! Amazing article you have written.
Thank you so much, Paulo!
I love your blog- so cute and stylish. Great photos as well. Looks like you all had a remarkable time.
Thanks, Katrina! Love love yours too! SO motivating!
Italy is well known for the rustic themed restaurants. They offer a distinct taste of culture and slow paced living. That’s why people all over the world seek the serene environment this country has.
I agree! I’m very grateful to be living here temporarily!!
OMG your kids are so cute! I didn’t go to Lake Como when I went to Italy. It looks beautiful. I went to all the typical cities: Rome, Milan, Venice and Florence. I hear the Almafi Coast is beautiful as well. Need to make my way back soon to hit all the other spots I missed!

Don’t you feel like every single corner of Italy MUST be visited?? It’s a small country packed FULL of charm. We are headed to Positano soon and I’m so excited to see the Amalfi Coast!! I’m LOVING your Italy blogs on your site! You must come back soon! If you go back to Milan, you must must go to Navigli area (https://www.google.it/search?q=navigli+milano&rlz=1C5CHFA_enIT781IT781&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwiQ_4abmOrcAhXksaQKHXaTD8MQ_AUICygC&biw=1177&bih=965) as well as the Brera district! And of course, climb the roof of the Duomo!
Can i know what type of a camera is being used here? the pictures are damn cool. Looks super sharp
Thanks! I used the Nikon D7200 and these Nikon lenses 14-24mm f/2.8g, 85mm f1.4g, 35mm f1.4g. I say invest in the lenses and don’t worry about the camera body too much! If I had to travel with just one lens it would be the 35mm. Great for street photography. Take care!
Wow! Your photos really looks great!! I’m inspired by yours to photograph well for our travel blog. Glad you had fun!
Thanks, Chuck! Would love to visit your blog!
This trip looks amazing. Plus the children look so happy. Makes me want to travel and see the world.
Just love the joy and fulfillment on all your faces, always a wonderful thing to take some time out for this kind of stuff, awaiting your review of the hotel.
I’m blown away by all these pictures. I’m so jealous I wasn’t there. I really liked the green moss between the cobble stones.
Thanks so much, Jean! I love that green moss between the cobble stones too! SO pretty!
It is my dream to visit and tour the whole Italy top to bottom and for sure Lake Como and Amalfi Coast is included in the list. What a great way to be inspired! Amazing.
There is just something so beautiful and old world about it all. I love all of the different places you had to visit. I love the look of the streets and walkways. And the food looked absolutely fabulous. You must have had the best time.
Thank you!! The old streets and walkways were definitely my favorite part! We must have walked up and down them a thousand times – for no reason at all – just that they were super charming! The store owners probably were shaking their heads! 😂
I love the overall look of your blog! And your photos are so nice, it felt like I was there with you on your stroll.
You have a such an eye. I love all your photos. They’re all amazing:) I wonder what filter did you used.
Thanks, Liev! I use VSCO X for my iphone photos AND VSCO Classic Films (https://shop.vsco.co/store/vsco/en_GB/pd/productID.5168103300) for my DSLR photos on desktop!
