EUROPE Food discovery Italy SalernoOctober 25, 2018January 15, 2019

SCAZZETTA, the cake uniquely made in Salerno

The food discovery I am going to talk about today is pretty unknown, even amongst Italian people. The reason for this unfair anonymity is due to the fact Scazzetta is a signature cake which is exclusively made in a pastry shop in Salerno. Considering that Salerno is not one of the most popular destinations in…

Rione Fornelle and its painted poetry will charm you

That day I got lost and I found myself wandering around neighbourhoods of Salerno I had never been to before, I discovered an incredible place where I could enjoy street art and get overwhelmed by the beauty of verses written on walls. I didn’t simply walk around forgotten areas of the city, I roamed through…

Throwback to July 2018, when I was awkwardly posing on the famous Hanoi railway! ••• I promise I will add to my 2019 resolutions the goal to learn how to pose in photos. And also not to dirty my clothes while travelling (or if it happens, to just rush to the hotel to change up), because photos won't ever forgive this kind of clumsy mistakes. And if you are wondering what I'm talking about, just take a closer look to my attire and try to spot the stain of shame. 🙃 It is the result of my absolute inadequacy to eat or drink whatever while I'm walking. This stain was indeed caused by a cup of coffee I bought at Starbucks, which I somehow spilled over my chest. Despite my hostel being literally 1 minute away from the cafe, I was too lazy to go back to change my clothes, so I simply walked around the whole day with a huge coffee stain that I tried to hide in every possible way while posing in photos. And, fortunately, the stain is not too evident in this snap, but if you want I can show you the other photos taken that day, just to give you a chance to make fun of me and of my awkward poses and expressions!🙂 •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• 📍Hanoi, Vietnam 🇻🇳 || •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• Follow me on @surply_ and on my blog surplyblogstheworld.com if you fancy reading about overly longwinded girl writing about her adventures around the 🌍! • • • • • • • • @girlsborntravel @woman.travel #AsianWanderlust #TravelDreamSeekers #IAmMissAdventure #GirlPowerTravel #GirlsBornTravel #GirlsBornTravel #DamesTravel #FemaleTravelBloggers #InstaPassport #LovesTravels #Travelholic #WordpressBlogger #TravelBloggeres #TravelWriter #Travel_ig #Travelgram #Italianigers #PassionPassport #StayandWander #WorldPlaces #WellTravelled #Worlderlust #Vietnam #Hanoi #HanoiWander #HanoiTravel #HanoiRailway #VietnamTravel
Detail of Matthias Church, Budapest! 🇭🇺 ••• HELLO PEOPLE OF THE NET! I'm finally back on Instagram and I'm here to share an awesome news: I'M A FREE BITCH! Well, technically I still need to write my thesis, but after the end of all my exams I actually convinced myself I'm already graduated ☻ And I'm already organizing the party, looking for gifts my family should buy me (I was asked to do so...🙃) and even planning the travel I will make after the hell is officially over! And well, I do have huge programs thanks to the money I have been saving in the last 6 months, and I can't wait to finally make all my projects become reality! However, I still don't want to reveil next destinations since nothing is official yet, but I'm curious to know what are YOUR plans for this 2019! Have you already planned any travel? Or are you saving money for some travel destinations you are hopefully reaching this year? Let me know!😄 • • •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• 📍Budapest, Hungary 🇭🇺 || 📷 taken with #OlympusPenEPL8 by @surply_ •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• Follow me on @surply_ and on my blog surplyblogstheworld.com if you fancy reading about overly longwinded girl writing about her adventures around the 🌍! • • • • • • • • #FemaleTravelBloggers #InstaPassport #LovesTravels #Travelholic #WordpressBlogger #TravelBloggeres #TravelWriter #Travel_ig #Travelgram #Italianigers #PassionPassport #StayandWander #WorldPlaces #WellTravelled #Worlderlust #budapesttravel #budapestagram #budapesthungaryblog #MatthiasChurch #MatthiasChurchBudapest #TravelPhotography #BudapestBestphoto #Budapest_ig #TravelEurope
Before discovering my passion for travelling, I liked to call myself a bookworm. I indeed loved reading, and the only kind of adventures I was aware of were found in books. This way, I used to spend hours or entire days reading; I kept accumulating books and there was no way to quench my thirst of new stories. And fortunately, I had very supportive parents by my side, who had always encouraged my passion ever since I was a child and made me feel proud of my literary interests. ••• Then time passed and, as soon as I finished high school, things changed. I started putting aside all the books I had left on my nightstand and I started wondering about what else could be found outside the pages of the books in my room. I started being more curious about the "actual" world, the one I could experience with my five senses and not just with my imagination. And this is how I slowly lost my appetite for reading and started focusing on other kind of activities that inexorably distracted me from books. And, if on one side I really like cultivating tens of different interests and activities, on the other side I miss my bookish adventures. This is why I decided to set a new goal for my 2019, that is to read at least 1 book each month. 📖 It might sound stupid, but this is the best way for me to keep up with my schedule and compromise with all the other passion I want to continue focusing on, the blog included. And well, the mission was succeeded in January!😎 ••• And you, do you have any passion you had to set aside in the past months or years due to a life change? Do you plan to do anything to go back to the old good times? Let me know!👀 PS: the photo above was taken in the most beautiful bookstore in the whole world!🌍 • • • • • • • • #VeneziaCityItaly #UnlimitedVenice #IgersVenezia #IGVenezia #VeneziaPerSempre #igersvenezia #VeneziaUnica #visitvenice #InstaPassport #LovesTravels #Travelholic #libreriaacquaaltavenezia #Veneziagram #WordpressBlogger #TravelBloggeres #TravelWriter #Travel_ig #Travelgram #Italianigers #TravelChronicles #PassionPassport #StayandWander #WorldPlaces #WellTravelled #Worlderlust #libreriaacquaalta #OlympusPenEpl8
When I ditch my Instagram profile there only are three possible reasons: • ☝🏼 I AM TRAVELLING: yes, because as an aspiring travel blogger, I don't like blogging in the same exact moment I am travelling. I am that kind of person who preferes "living the moment", other than not being able to keep up with schedules and plans LOL • ✌ I AM SICK: not much to explain 'bout it. • ✌+☝🏼 I AM STUDYING: yes, because I am a university student before being anything else! I study Asian languages (Korean and Chinese) and I'm about to graduate, which means I need to make one last effort before finally BREAKING FREE. ●○● And guess what? This week I haven't posted anything because I am both SICK and STUDYING for my last university exam! Such an amazing combo, my least fav things ever!😂 But well, today I felt like posting a photo and so here I am! ••• I hope everything is going well with you and, in case you are a university student dealing with exam session, just know that my heart goes out to you. Said that, I go back to my 3 books and 2 novels I need to read before the examination. Bye bye social (media) life. •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• 📍 Flower Market, Amsterdam 🇳🇱|| 📷 taken with #OlympusPenEPL8 •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• Follow me on @surply_ and on my blog surplyblogstheworld.com if you fancy reading about overly longwinded girl writing about her adventures around the 🌍! • • • • • #InstaPassport #LovesTravels #Travelholic #WordpressBlogger #TravelBloggeres #TravelWriter #Travel_ig #Travelgram #Italianigers #PassionPassport #StayandWander #WorldPlaces #WellTravelled #Worlderlust #Amsterdamgram #Amsterdam🇳🇱 #AmsterdamWorld #AmsterdamFlowerMarket #AmsterdamFlowers #BloemenMarkt #BloemenMarktAmsterdam
#WorldWithoutFiltersSUNDAY 🌆 ••• I thought I would have forgetten about posting it, since I'm not able to keep up with any schedule, but well... I got the chance to surprise myself!☻ So here I am with my 2nd Sunday WITHOUT filters on my feed! ••• This photo was taken in Singapore last August, on the top floor of Marina Bay Sands! The price of the ticket to reach the skypark was freaking expensive, but I must say it was worth it in the end: I indeed experienced one of the most beautiful sunsets ever. The sky was so orange and, considering it is my favourite colour, I couldn't feel happier to be immersed in such a bright colour. 🌆 In this photo, the sunset I captured was almost over to be fair, but you can still get a glimpse of it! ••• If you like my initiative, post a photo of a place without any filters and use the tag #WorldWithoutFiltersSUNDAY ! Let's show the beauty of the world without any deceiving filter~~ 🌌 •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• 📍Marina Bay Sands, Singapore 🇸🇬 || 📷 taken with #OlympusPenEPL8 , with no postproduction at all. #NoFilters •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• Follow me on @surply_ and on my blog surplyblogstheworld.com if you fancy reading about overly longwinded girl writing about her adventures around the 🌍! • • • • • • • • #AsianWanderlust #SingaporeWorld #VisitSingapore #PassionMadePossible #ThisIsSingapore #SkyParkSingapore #MarinaBaySands #LetsExploreSingapore #SingaporeSunset #SingaporePhotography #TravelPhotography #InstaPassport #LovesTravels #Travelholic #WordpressBlogger #TravelBloggeres #Travel_ig #Travelgram #Italianigers #PassionPassport #StayandWander #WorldPlaces #WellTravelled #Worlderlust #PinkGlobeTravel
Average white girl spinning around in her rented HANBOK!💃 ••• Renting a Hanbok (i.e. traditional Korean dress) was definitely one of the best experiences I could ever live during my time in Seoul. By walking around the Gyeongbokgung palace wearing a hanbook I indeed showed the world how much of a princess I have always known to be! 👸And it was amazing to see the reaction of tourists whenever I walked by them. 💁‍♀️ ••• For the curious ones, I have just published a blog post where I explained what is a Hanbok and everything you need to know before renting one! Including a bunch of hopefully useful tips to take note of in order to make this experience the most perfectest!
