Barcelona is all Gaudi and romance, art and history, beyond the Passeig and between El Born. There's a beach in the city too but more important; THE BEST BRUNCH OF YOUR LIFE. FACT.
Go to Barca, but maybe not right away...

Cuba's heartland, Cuba's greenland... everything here challenges your knowledge about Cuba and enhances the story of a place that belongs on the all time list.

Bologna; its the food, its the heart and its everything else... come away with me.

It was missing something, amidst the storytelling that tries to get to the essence of the man himself, the legend that he would be come and the empire he would leave behind... it was missing something more but it is by no means a lesser movie for it. 
Listen...

Kennedy! How dare you? How very dare you?!! This book is an ode to friendship of which she is right, there are not even sonnets for.

A wonder of the world, or it should be. Cuba is much more than the world allows us to think. Come away with me to the most divine place in this most divine of churches. Also, I make a case for Mary.

Somewhere in his grave Dante is hooting it up with laughter at Florence and I can hear him cackling.

And it is not even finished yet. It will be completed in its 100th year and even so, it is still the most magnificent church in the world. Come away with me to La Sagrada Familia.

A king walked a town to beg for his forgiveness from the after life. Canterbury is where history comes alive in the Church of England.

The most divine little chapel where art and history collides and a different kind of love story born of friendship. Possibly the most beautiful church in France.

History lived and still lives in these old pews a gentleness and presence of the past, ever so present. A lesbian union blessed or was it?

The most notorious sculpture in the Catholic church and it is worth your time. Saints and ecstasies throw in a little scandal and a some wars and we have ourselves history

History dark and light, mosaics grand and glorious also Charlamagne was inspired by here. Excuse the mispronunciation sometimes but we get there in the end. Come for the Mosaics stay for the dance between Saints and Virgins... because of course. Also who knows you might run into a Monastery of Monks out on the town.
I still don't know if its a Monastery of Monks but I feel like it should be.

A church within a church and the origins of the Poor Clares. St Francis of Assisi was here.

Dante Alighieri does not rest in peace here but others do; this church will always haunt Florence for what it does not have but there are other reasons you should totally visit this church.

A queen who inspired the most famous pizza is buried here. Raphael lays next to his fiancee of six years having cheated on her with another woman but they rest in peace in death. In the line of succession was Lil Cease; literally Caeser son... its all a big family mess, no less juicy.

This season we are doing things a little different around here... stick with me I promise its worth it, because we are going to church. Sculptures and mysteries of the catholic church let's explore some of the most fascinating stories of some of the most memorable churches I've been to.
