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 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.

ᵃᵈ SO EXCITED!!! 🤗🤗🤗 We are in a video to be featured in @TodayShow breaks (and in adverts across the US) to show off our favourite city in the world - London, all in partner ship with @Delta! But here’s the really IMPORTANT PART - @Delta is committed as an airline to go carbon neutral by 2050 which is ambitious, bold and VERY exciting! You can find out all about this and what @Delta’s doing around this from the link in our stories.

ᵃᵈ That feeling that you simultaneous understand and don’t understand what lies beneath the surface… that’s what watching Mare of Easttown (starring the incredible, Kate Winslet) on @SkyTv was like. It all made sense in the end but what a rollercoaster it was to finally get to that point. What’s your fave TV show of late? We’re looking for recommendations.

Speaking of recommendations, the 3rd series of Succession is coming out very soon on Sky Atlantic and we can’t wait! We didn’t start watching it until the second series had aired so it was a VERY delicious binge session to have both series to watch back to back. Super excited for the 3rd series!

When we first decided to go to Greece for two week

When we first decided to go to Greece for two weeks, it felt so indulgent. A 2 week holiday! We’d had the time booked out for a holiday to San Francisco which was cancelled as we’re not allowed to visit the US yet so we thought 2 weeks in Greece would be brilliant. And it was. But part way through, a job we were meant to do got cancelled and we suddenly had free time in our calendar and decided to turn 2 weeks into a whole month. It’s been absolutely amazing. Definitely the most indulgent thing we’ve ever done but soooo worth it! 😁😁😁😁

I really like my new bucket hat but Lloyd’s convinced it needs to be thrown into the trash! 😆😆 What do you think?

*Also, excuse the dusty feet. That’s what happens when you decide to go on random walks through olive groves.
