Whether long or short, relaxing or full of adventure, vacations have a way of sticking with us. They create memories to last a lifetime. Trips, and travel in general, teach us about ourselves, our likes and dislikes, other cultures, art and entertainment – and the list goes on. Travel enhances and enriches our lives. I… Continue reading European Adventure Part 7: Venice, Italy
While Murano, Italy isn’t as colorful curbside (or dockside in this case) as it’s neighboring community, Burano, once you step inside any of the canal lined buildings, all the colors of the rainbow are there to greet you, in the form of beautiful hand blown glass. Glass blowing is what put Murano on the map,… Continue reading European Adventure Part 6: Murano, Italy
While it’s taken me more time than I care to admit getting the rest of my European Adventure series ready for you, it’s finally here. I know it comes at an unfortunate time in the world, when travel is literally at a stand still. But, what everyone can do is research and plan! Fingers (and… Continue reading European Adventure Part 5: Burano, Italy
One decision that should not be split when visiting Croatia is the choice to visit the city of Split. It tends to be less popular than Croatia’s other most known city, Dubrovnik (click to see my review), but it shouldn’t be. It’s an equally beautiful city, and one that actually has more to offer. In… Continue reading European Adventure Part 4: Split Decision
If happiness could be bottled and sold, the place to do it would be in Hvar. It’s a lively island on the Adriatic Sea in the middle of the west coast of Croatia, that’s not only abounding with activity, but with complete beauty.

Now that you know some of my basic tips for traveling to Croatia, let’s get to the really good stuff.

In order to do that fully, it’s helpful to know where… Continue reading European Adventure Part 2: Diving into Dubrovnik

I have been traveling a lot this summer and also have been playing tourist in my own city. I have been… Continue reading European Adventure Part 1: Tips for Traveling to CROATIA
I have to start off apologizing for being absent from the ‘blogosphere’ for the past week. With work travel, personal travel and well, just life, Sarah In Style had to take a ride in the back seat. Nonetheless, I am back, and ready to write! With that being said, a few weeks ago I shared… Continue reading Destination Cuba – Part 2
So, it happened…I ventured to Cuba, a place I have dreamed of visiting for as long as I can remember. I think my desire to go stems from my love of all things vintage (thanks to parents who restore old cars, collect vintage memorabilia and love antiques), my passion for all things tropical and my… Continue reading Destination Cuba – Part 1
It’s getting colder here in Chicago, and that has me daydreaming of warmer weather, blue skies, sunshine, and beaches. Daydreaming of all of that has me reminiscing about my European vacation this summer (I know I know, it’s all I talk about!). One of the highlights along the way was Cinque Terre in Italy. It’s actually… Continue reading Take Me Away to Cinque Terre
