A visit to Porta Portese and I was in heaven. Wandering down the streets in Rome’s largest & best street market is eye candy for a shopper, especially a market lover. Here, every Sunday morning starting at 6am, you can find pretty much anything your heart desires. Clothing This is definitely the place to buy …
Cimitero Acattolico Is the Non-Catholic cemetery or sometimes called the Protestant cemetery. It is located in the Testaccio neighbourhood. Not too far to walk to from other historical sites. The beautiful Cimitero Acattolico is my favourite cemetery in Rome. The Site This is a private cemetery and still in use today. Visitors are allowed to …
I think all readers know by now that I am a market fiend. As soon as I arrived in Malta and got myself settled, you better believe I started googling local markets. 😊 Well I found one, within walking distance. What a beautiful market in Birgu I found early on a Tuesday morning. This is …
I wrote a post yesterday about the produce, fruits and veggies at the market. Their beauty and abundance consumed me. But there were so many other delightful things. So today, I’ll write about more goodies from Birgu market, the bread, seafood, antipasti & flowers. With Easter fast approaching, I have noticed some traditional baked goods …
I love shopping for food. Period. Whether its from a market, corner store, road side stand, or large grocery supermarket. Everywhere I travel, I always, without fail, visit at least one large grocery store. La Comer in Fluvial, the best grocery in town, is one such large store, not to be missed when visiting Puerto …
I took the bus from Sayulita to San Pancho for a day trip. Wow, I was absolutely impressed by this little town. San Pancho, a big slice of paradise that I had been looking for, and have now found. The main bus stop in Sayulita is on Av Revolucion. Inside is a ticket booth where …
Every town and city I have travelled to in Mexico has an abundance of extraordinary murals painted in all parts of town, the tourist areas and the residential areas. Sayulita I have to say is the odd ball here. There are murals, but they are few and far between. Let’s have a look at Sayulita’s …
I had the chance to visit another cemetery, the Cemeterio de Sayulita. I would think when the location was first selected, it was most likely a beautiful and serene space. However, today, Sayulita’s not so private cemetery is getting hemmed in by new construction and has become a shortcut to other destinations. The main entrance …
It’s all about the beautiful hibiscus today. Here in Puerto Morelos, Mexico, hibiscus plants abound. If you are a tropical flower admirer, you will be delighted walking around this lovely little town. Because I have been able to photograph so many of these amazing flowers, I have decided to dedicate an entire post to the …
There are many reasons why people flock to Mexico. Friendly people, sunshine, warmth and food are just a few attractions that bring millions of visitors here every year. One of the more prominent reasons for me is the love and uninhibited use of colour. From the colours of the houses, to the colours of the …
There is colour everywhere you look in Mexico. Plants always seem to be in bloom and produce stands are overflowing with their colourful bounty. Walking around every town that I have had the privilege to explore so far, are brightly painted murals. And here is no exception, the beautiful Puerto Morelos murals are everywhere! Mayan …
