Hi all! We decided last week to head over the pond and see some more of Europe. Paris, San Sebastian, Madrid, somewhere in Italy.. maybe Sardinia, London, Wales and Ireland. Something like that. We'd like to try a Michelin star restaurant for the first time. I hear there are lots in San Sebastian. If Tilly Star is still around I'd love any advice from her since she's been there or anything else there for meals or sites but already booked accommodation. Hope everyone is well. Been a while I know. x

hey, you! Love you! how's you?
As for Italy: have you been to Rome? if not, you must go. it is such a gorgeous city! otherwise, maybe toscana? although Sardinia is wonderful according to friends who have been. I'd love to visit myself. maybe that's a really good choice.

We just booked an apartment in Napoli rikita. I wouldn't mind seeing Berlin or around there. Not sure we have time.
Forgot you asked how long we are travelling. Six weeks.

ah, six weeks sounds good - though not that much time considering the amount of places, i suppose ... there is always so much to see ... well, if you get to berlin after all, send me a message!

I hope MrChoc and I were too Jeff Thanks I'll note those tzarine. We found a chef just opened a new restaurant in San Sebastian who has other Michelin star restaurants so booked there. Cheaper because it's too new to have a star or three yet! |
