By Indira JansensBest Gelato: Most tour guides and websites tout the wonders of Vivoli as the Best Gelateria in Florence. But I prefer Carabe near the Accademia to the over the top sweet and heavy concoctions over at Vivoli. Carabe is located a few steps from the Accademia, so you can grab a bite before venturing on to see the statue of the David. During the summer, they serve their famous

By Indira JansensIn Italy, many of the specials and menus will be composed around the seasonal produce. In the spring, there might be fried zucchini flowers, and in the fall, porcini mushrooms, truffle dishes and desserts featuring chestnuts. It’s best to eat these seasonal delicacies as they crop up in osterias and ristoranti in the form of antipasti, primi, secondi and dessert!I've composed a

By Indira JansensA Dining out experience in Florence can either leave you with an idiotic grin and all your five gustatory receptors indulged or it could leave you incensed and broke. Florence boasts of numerous eateries where simplicity and the quality of the ingredients rule, making the city among the top European destinations for its world class museums, Old World charm and culinary

by Gemina LuisThe Mall is the closest in proximity to Florence, 30 minutes by car (without traffic) on the A1 highway. In the same town are the outlets for Dolce Gabbana, Fendi and Celine, but they are not as replete with recent merchandise as The Mall partner shops. On the other hand, Miuccia Prada is such a genius, who can choose?I Pelletieri d’Italia AKA SPACE AKA The Prada Outlet is housed

by Gemina LuisOnce upon a time there once was a sensible Virgo, who considered her tonal shades of heathered cashmere turtlenecks and several bespoke jackets- staples for a decent Fall wardrobe. Then came The Mall, the ultimate designer outlet, in one of the most beautiful landscapes in the world, Tuscany!!!Flashback to 2001… My first transaction could hardly be described as momentous. I remained

by John NavataUnless you happen to be wealthy and have a lot of free time, chances are you wish you could fly more often than you currently can. Airfare is, of course, the most cost prohibitive element of long distance travel. Many people find themselves in situations where they know someone they could stay with in another city - so accommodations would be free - but there's simply no way of

by Jonathan SemenickTo start off it is good to understand what kind of transport you can get in Bangkok. There are numerous different types of public transport, but the usual visitor or resident uses only 7 of these: Meter Taxis, Tuk Tuks, buses, canal boats, river taxis, motorbikes, and Taxis (with no meter).Lets begin with Tuk Tuks. Aren't they cute, those little three wheeled taxis, colorfully
