My FAVORITE Countries of Summer 2023 ⬇️🌎 In Summer 2023, JT and I left Arizona (to get out of the heat) and travel around Europe for a little over two months. For the trip, we each had a 28L @cotopaxi Allpa backpack, and a little fanny pack – that’s it. Throughout the two months, we traveled to nearly 20 countries, and went to two continents. We ate some of the best food of our lives & met some of the most fun/genuine people we’ve ever met. Here are some of our favorites from last Summer: 📍Kotor, Montenegro - @visit_montenegro As weird as it sounds, I had the best pasta of my life here. Not being dramatic – it was that good. Besides the good food, we loved getting to hike the city walls and swim in the beautiful water. Truly a dream destination. A local guide also helped me get over my fear of swimming in the ocean here by telling me submarine vs shark statistics…really appreciated that one😂 📍Kyoto, Japan - @visit_kyoto Japan had been a bucket list destination for both of us for a very long time & it exceeded all expectations. We were so thrilled to be there and soaked in every second. We ate soooo much food too – we even went to a Michelin recognized gyoza restaurant😂 📍Edinburgh, Scotland - @visitscotland We started the Summer in Inverness & ended it in Edinburgh for fringe fest. Seriously, some of the most amazing sights and cool weather. If you’ve never heard of Fringe Fest, it’s a festival where actors, playwrights, musicians, street performers, and more come together. You can attend plays, or spend the entire day wandering the streets watching performances. It was absolutely wonderful! With all of these cool places, so many fun memories happened off camera as well. It was a Summer I’ll never forget & it’s a constant reminder to do what you love 🫶🏻 So even if you can’t travel a lot, I encourage you to do what makes you happy & create some memories! & if you need help planning a trip, let me know⬇️ travelmore travelinspiration travelstories travelstoriesworld travelexperience travelsummer travelthissummer
