Share The Article Your favorite expat is back. Having been to over 40 European countries, with only Belarus and a couple of tiny micro-nations left to tick off, I can safely attest that there’s no greater, more diverse, downright beautiful country than my beloved France. No, I’m not originally from here—Brazilian-Italian via Britain and Ireland—but […]

Share The Article No more walking past unfriendly ‘Turiste Fuori’ graffiti in Rome, getting stopped by ticket inspectors who’ll bar your entry unless you’ve pre-booked your slot just to breathe in Venice for a few hours, or planning your Amalfi road trip around the random last-digit restrictions on your car plate.

Share The Article Don’t really fancy getting reminded every few steps by a menacing graffiti that you’re not welcome there, walking the streets of Madrid, or even chased down the streets of La Rambla, Barcelona, by angry locals brandishing water pistols? Neither do we, but we can’t stay away from beautiful, sun-drenched Spain. That’s why […]

Share The Article We’ve been singing its praises for years, and we’ll keep hammering it home until it sticks: Mexico is so much more than its Caribbean beaches, larger-than-life luxury resorts, and touristy pyramids.
