Troubled Taranto, The Beauty Underneath | The Puglia Guys Taranto could have been one of Southern Italy’s most beautiful cities. But condemned to industrialisation and a long decay, we discover the beauty underneath.

Cornwall is a stunning part of the UK with some fantastic countryside, but the highlights for me are the rugged coast walks and seafood. As a bonus its pretty #dogfriendly too.

Croatia is a fantastic country with lots of options for places to visit. The country has an interesting history dating back to the Roman era.

Debating that or further south. Fish markets and easy train connections to some places on my list appeal...

The biggest debate here is do we leave πŸ‡·πŸ‡΄ on the day of my wifes last exam or the next day. 🀣🀣

The Libearty Bear Sanctuary near Brasov and Zarnesti in Romania is great fun and informative. The sanctuary is set over a big site, and there are quite a few enclosures to see on the tour of the sanctuary.
