Italy is a dream destination filled with history, breathtaking coastlines, and some of the best food in the world. In August, I had the opportunity to explore some of Italy’s most iconic spots, from the ancient ruins of the Colosseum in Rome to the picturesque Amalfi Coast. I wandered the charming streets of Positano, relaxed at famous beach clubs in both Positano and Praiano, and took a lemon tour in Sorrento to see how Italy’s famous limoncello is made. Every moment felt like stepping into a postcard, and I made it my mission to experience both the must-see landmarks and hidden gems that make Italy so special.
