Most memorable trip

I spent two semesters studying in Bologna, and that’s really where it all began. It had to be Italy, my grandmother was born in Napoli, and I wanted to connect with her sisters there and in Rome. I did, and every return to Napoli to spend time with my great aunt has meant the world to me.

Those moments shaped how I see travel. Time is the ultimate luxury, and I’m drawn to the art of slow travel, embracing la dolce far niente.
