Never have I arrived in such an idyllic place. The quaint stone buildings lining the road lead to a stone arched bridge with the perfect creek running under it, moss on the rocks, lush green banks with ferns and flowers and crystal clear water. Immediately I knew we were in a very special place-a completely perfect place.
Aberystwyth is a great location to get a feel of true Welsh culture, landscape, and community. It is easy to make it through the town on foot in an afternoon.
If you want to be romanced, or swept away, slip back in time, or just simply relax Lucca Italy is the place to go. The ancient walls surrounding Lucca have protected it from change and somehow magically seem to block out the rest of the world.

Assisi is full of history most of which is located in Piazza del Commune, Rocca Maggiorie (the 14th century castle) or the Basilica of Saint Francis of Assisi.
Spend 3 days in Ravenna Italy admiring the mosaics, Dante’s tomb, shopping and falling in love with this beautiful city.

If you are looking for a picture perfect town full of half-timber buildings, cobblestone streets, stunning cathedral and beautiful riverfront full of flowers then Strasbourg France is the town for you.
Lured by the romantic ideal of victorian castles, lush green fields and windy country roads we booked four days in the Loire Valley. While it wasn’t what we had expected we found surprises are quite romantic in France.
