Ragusa was our next stop after Noto and actually, the one place we KNEW we had to stay in before even deciding on where else to stay. In fact, I’d probably go as far as saying that our entire trip to Sicily was based around visiting Ragusa and I think it’s easy to see why - it’s such a beauty! 😍😍😍😍

ᵃᵈ For the first time ever - we finally have a car in London! 😁

We’ve been on the lookout for an electric car for a few months now and we’ve finally gotten our hands on the new Ford Mustang Mach-E from @forduk… and yes, it’s 100% electric!   Our initial rationale for getting an electric car were predominantly around how environmentally friendly it is, and also how great it is for impromptu adventures but we hadn’t fully considered the many other ways it’s amazing in London. 😄😄

Like how:
 - We pay nothing on congestion charging in London because we get 100% discount on it due to the Ford Mustang Mach-E being a fully electric vehicle - We don’t have to stress about parking in Central London as we can park and charge in electric charging bays (this one very pleasantly took us by surprise when we had to go shopping in Covent Garden the other day) - Being electric, the Ford Mustang Mach-E is an intelligent car and constantly learns and adapts itself to your driving style.   So excited to head off on many impromptu adventures! #RechargeYourSoul

Before we arrived in Sicily I’d never even heard

Before we arrived in Sicily I’d never even heard of Marzamemi but after multiple recommendations by our concierge in our hotel in Noto, we finally decided to visit. It’s so worth it too. It’s such a cute little fishing village and truly comes alive at night.

Noto was hot, delicious and absolutely worth it! T

Noto was hot, delicious and absolutely worth it! The city is a UNESCO World Heritage site and even though it’s a technically a city, it’s so easy to explore on foot. (Well, relatively easy - there are like 3 main streets though each on is stacked a few metres higher than the other).

Anyway, long story short 😄😄 - if you’re thinking of visiting Sicily and haven’t been here before, Noto is definitely one city you have to visit!

This place in Noto, Sicily was the very time we’

This place in Noto, Sicily was the very time we’ve ever arrived at a hotel and instantly knew we needed to book an extra night’s stay there. We stayed in 4 places in Sicily in total and we booked them in such haphazard fashion. The last hotel of the trip was booked first because it was ‘hotel-love’ at first sight, then we had to book the 1st one next because we needed the details to fill out the passenger locator form for Italy and then the second one (i.e. this one - @countryhousevilladorata), after which we then booked the 3rd one. This meant that on checking into this hotel, there was still one more hotel left to book so we decided to stay longer here before carrying on to other gorgeous cities in Sicily. We only found out about the hotel though their sister hotel in Noto (@sevenroomsvilladorata) which we were going to book initially but then the private pool situation in the Eco Lodges at the @countryhousevilladorata proved to be such a (welcome) distraction we decided to go there instead. 😁😁😁😁

If, on our first night in Catania, we were ‘slow

If, on our first night in Catania, we were ‘slowly falling in love’ with the city, by day 2 we were deep in the throes of love with Catania. Like don’t get me wrong - you still need to watch out for your wallet in crowds but it’s such a beautiful, city and exploring it on foot helps you quickly realise why it’s now a UNESCO World Heritage site and such an incredible Italian gem.

The first spot we visited in Sicily was Catania an

The first spot we visited in Sicily was Catania and, I’ve gotta be honest, it took a hot moment to get used to. First impressions driving from the airport to the city centre was bleak and for a moment there, we were worried we’d made a mistake. It didn’t help that it’s the only part of Sicily that the car rental place at the airport had a warning about car theft. But then, shortly after we arrived into the city, a quick jaunt to find pasta and wine had us rather quickly falling in love with Catania. It’s perhaps the most unfiltered city of Sicily and that can seem like a bit much initially (ergo the iPhone photos) but as you slowly settle into the city, it’s charm really starts to get to you. You very quickly realise how beautiful the city is and how truly exciting it is. Catania is also a UNESCO World Heritage site and is home to some incredible architecture and amazing food and so, unsurprisingly, within an hour of parking our car and wondering around the city, we knew we’d made the right call by starting our trip here.
