Lake Como, Italy

During this summer's vacation our first stop was to Lake Como, Italy. I was thrilled about this little lake region since I had never visited it before nor had Kevin. After flying to Milan we took a high speed train to this northern lake region and found ourselves on a ferry with luggage to Cadenabbia, one of many small towns on the lake.

We opted to stay in a well located Air B&B that I highly recommend that was close enough to the ferry and sites of the area. It's listed as Royal Cadenabbia-Design Apartment if you're interested, check it out!  It was perfecto for our first Air B&B experience, setting a high standard. We visited Bellagio for dinner most evenings, walked along the lake, and explored the stunning botanical  gardens of Villa Carlotta amongst other sites. This villa is absolutely breathtaking and Kevin outdid himself with the most perfect proposal from the top balcony! We enjoyed this quaint place away from heavy tourism and loved the fresh area food from the region. Besides way too many photos and wine we couldn't have indulged more. We will definitely be returning !
