    A Weekend Escape to Gozo Island: Our Maltese Adventure

    If you’re like us, you might not know that Malta isn’t just a single island but an archipelago, with three inhabited islands: Malta, Gozo, and Comino. Malta is the largest and most developed, while Comino has only one small hotel. Gozo isn’t centrally located, but it strikes a balance between bustling Malta and the quiet Comino. It offers enough amenities to keep you busy for a weekend, while still being peaceful. From our apartment in Sliema, Malta, we took local bus 222 to the Cirkewwa ferry terminal.

    One Month in Lockdown: A Portugal Update

    We’ve been in a State of Emergency here in Portugal for a month now, although we began self-isolating a bit earlier. Despite the world’s upheaval, we’ve found a sense of calm. Most of the world is at a standstill, and it feels surreal. Wild animals are wandering into cities, pets have their owners home full-time, kids aren’t in school, and everyone is spending all day together. Jobs and lives have been lost, creating a mix of emotions that’s hard to process. Nick and I have gone through many stages during this time, and when compared to earlier updates, it’s striking…

It turned out, we needed to take a train first, then a bus. We dashed in and out of the station, asking about 10 people where to find this bus. At one point, I even fell…

    If you can pull yourself away from the beach, exploring the wineries in Cyprus is a top activity on the island.
