Italy, one of the most alluring getaways in Europe, is known for its mouth-watering cuisines, rich and tasty pasta sauces, world-class- artists, beautiful landscapes, neo-classical civilization, and not to forget the famous Italian gelato. Having traveled to Italy probably over 30 times in my life, I am always drawn to the incredible architecture, historical ruins, and the people that live life less ordinary. We should all live like Italians. Working to live, not living to work. Kati and I always seem to be heading back as there is always more to explore in Italy.
One of our favorite spots is the Amalfi Coast. Not just Positano, what most people think of when they think the Amalfi Coast, but rather the entire coast (we actually do not recommend Positano as it is too expensive and too touristy). We typically stay in Praiano which is Positano’s less crowded, just as beautiful neighbor.
Here are 10 photos to inspire you to take your next trip to the Amalfi Coast:

Our Final Word
The Amalfi Coast is like a dream and when you are there you really start to live the dolce vita. Get settled, rent a Vespa and explore the coast. Around every turn is an amazing view and every town is filled with history and great restaurants. We will be heading back so see you there.
