BornToTravel - Marco Rabbia

I love to travel and discover new places. My first trip was when I was 18 months old, am now 41 and I am still going strong!!! The most I have ever lived in one country is 5 years. Although I am now discovering more of Europe, because of the fact that we now travel with kids, I left my heart in Asia, and have promised to go back...

Biaritz - The wave capital of Europe Europe » France » Aquitaine » Biarritz

The Atlantic breeze

A MUST for anyone who likes waves! A long weekend in Biaritz is really more than enough to discover and enjoy this very charming coastal town giving onto the Atlantic. My advice would be to check the weather forecast before going there. Because like all beach towns giving onto an open ocean, when the wind blows...It ain't a joke! The atmosphere is vibrant and young, eventhough there is a lot of JetSet hanging around. There is a great selection of restaurants, not to mention shopping of any type. You can stay in one of the many Bed & Breakfasts, or choose [View Full Entry]

Discovering Sarlat Europe » France » Midi-Pyrénées » Toulouse

Foie Gras
What else can I say? If you don't like the idea of eating goose liver, make sure you do not mention it in Sarlat, as the entire local economy is built on this...

We recently visited Sarlat, which at only 2.5 hours drive from Toulouse, and discovered a typical regional French medieval village. Sarlat has one of the most beautiful open air markets of France, and is reknown for this. Hard to choose amongst all the types of fresh sausages, from duck meat sausage to porc sausage with truffle, or from porc sausage with roquefort to porc sausage with wild mushrooms. So the only thing is to try them all!!!! You have an incredible choice of walnuts all prepared in different ways, truffles, truffle oils, mushrooms, duck liver (foie gras). A truely incredibl [View Full Entry]

La Rosa Dei Venti - Vacation in Sardinia Europe » Italy » Sardinia » Alghero

La Rosa Dei Venti
An external shot of the holiday home we rented. Have a look on the website www.VacationSardegna.com

Perhaps I am repeating myself but the place we have discovered is truely FANTASTIC! It is near the beach without beaing in the center of all the chaos during the summer month, granted now is the mid season... The owners of this little holiday rental / B&B had the great idea of giving their home a name La Rosa Dei Venti they are on a hill and can always establish where the wind is coming from. As mentioned in yesterdays entry they are starting up their own website, which I must say so far is looking rather professional. Have a look [View Full Entry]

Got to love Sardinia Europe » Italy » Sardinia » Alghero

Arriving by Ferry
Just behind my daughter's head you can see Asinara island which until recently was an island prison. Can think of worse places to stay.

WOW! What a place! I can not believe that we are half way through October and yesterday I was still swimming on Lazaretto beach, a beach near Alghero. Found a beautiful vacation home rented out as a B&B, the house is split in two and the owners live just next door. Only 15 minutes drive from the beach, true bliss. They are currently trying to build their website to attract more people to this great place, and got to hand it to them for the effort. Check out their site www.vacationsardegna.com they expect to finish it by the end of the [View Full Entry]
