ULTIMATE SPRING RECOMMENDATION IN THE NETHERLANDS: VILLA AUGUSTUS IN DORDRECHT

Last year we stayed in Villa Augustus in Dordrecht to celebrate our anniversary. Villa Augustus is a hotel and restaurant, that is famous for its kitchen garden and the special building it is located in: an old water tower. During spring Villa Augustus is a perfect visit for lovers of wisteria, as several areas of the garden are covered in dainty purple flowers. In summer the kitchen garden is very impressive, making Villa Augustus a very interesting seasonal visit!

RAGUSA: UNDISCOVERED PHOTOGRAPHER’S DREAM IN SICILY

Ragusa was the most picturesque location of our Sicilian road trip. Ragusa consists of two parts which are both located on a different hill, which means that you can take incredible pictures from one hill to the other. Ragusa is a less popular destination than the more famous beach towns of Sicily, but that doesn’t mean it isn’t worth a visit. I hope I can convince you with my pictures.

CEFALÙ: SICILY’S MOST CHARMING SEASIDE TOWN?

I visited Cefalù as part of a little Sicilian road trip that I did in September. We started our road trip in Taormina, which was such a good location that is was hard to beat, but I have to say I fell in love with Cefalù as well. We only stayed in Cefalù for one night and I can spoil you: it is not enough. Cefalù still is quite affordable, which is a huge plus for visiting. It should definitely be part of your Sicilian itinerary as the combination of a charming town and a divine sea are just wonderful!
