Coffee, Wine, & Fun in Amsterdam ☕️🎨🍷✨

9/21: I finally got to visit Jack’s birth place ❤️ no wonder we both feel such a strong connection to this city. There’s a word in Dutch that is untranslatable in any other language. “Gezellig” (he-sell-ick) — a “cozyness” and deep sense of belonging to another person or place. Meaning a sort of togetherness, Gezellig is more of a feeling than a word. Its a huge part of Dutch culture, and after my short stay in Amsterdam, I definitely got a touch of its magic. More Gezellig please! ✨ _____ UPDATE 2/24: I spent a week in Amsterdam with my best friend and have updated this list with some new finds including coffee shops, wine bars, and restaurants! At the end of the guide, I’ve included a list of places that I didn’t get to make it to, but want to visit next time.

Cefalù is a coastal city in northern Sicily, Italy. It’s known for its Norman cathedral, a 12th-century fortress-like structure with elaborate Byzantine mosaics and soaring twin towers. It remains a popular beach vacation spot for Europeans. Don’t miss wandering down it’s charming streets and going for a hike on La Rocca! 🚊 50 mins by train from Palermo, Sicily
