Traveling is one of the best things you can do for your health. It helps to relax and disconnect from the daily grind and stress. It helps your physical and mental health. It is great for the soul. There are no limits when it comes to traveling, except for what you can afford. You can sight-see around some of your most dreamed about countries or choose exotic adventures. Go by rails, car, or even by boat. There are just so many options, and they will all help you in ways that you have never imagined. It is time to start planning your itinerary and book that dream trip, start enjoying life.
One of our favorite trips, was our 2016 Summer Vacation travels to the Mediterranean. We visited a beautiful municipality by the name of Roses, in Costa Brava, Spain. We booked our stay in an amazing hotel, Vista Bella. Even the name is beautiful, in Spanish it means, "beautiful view"
We were lucky to have scored an ocean front magnificent suite.
Our Suite in Vista Bella Hotel, Roses, SpainWe had a wonderful view to The Pirata Club, a beach club which had champagne flowing and music playing most of the day. We can see the boats pulling up and people getting off ready to have a great time.
While staying in this beautiful town, we learned there was a water park near by, we decided to venture out the following day to Aqua Brava. It was a great way to spend the day.
After leaving the water park we decided to hit a local Lebanese restaurant. We found El Barroco en Cadaques, Spain. We loved everything about it. From the entrance to the sweet owner whom taught my son the correct way of drinking tea, it was memorable.
We took the rest of week to explore and have a taste of the Spanish culture. One of our favorite treats was Jamon Pata Negra, also known as Jamon Iberico. It is a delicious cured ham made in Spain and made by Black Iberian Pigs. We are not normally pork eaters but one simply doesn't visit Spain, and leave without eating Pata Negra!

Of course, another must is La Paella Valenciana! A rich rice dish made with delicious seafood. There are many variations to this dish. My favorite is the Paella de Marisco, which is the seafood one.

I fully agree. Travelling is the perfect escape to destress, appreciate the world and put everything into perspective.

I totally agree with you – traveling causes enthusiasm and releases endorphines. Gives much power to do more activities and increases self-confidence due to widening your horizons. The only limit can be the finanses, but in this case there are also solutions 🙂 If you’re single, you can always find some voluntaries or student/working programmes. There’re cheap tickets. People with friends all around the world usually don’t pay for the accommodation. I’m only afraid of hitch-hiking 😉
Can’t wait for your article from Italy! I’ve been there a few times and I didn’t get bored at all. Beautiful landscapes, great food, warm people… What else can we want? 🙂

Travelling is a wonderful stress reliever, I agree. I have visited Spain but much prefer Italy, so looking forward to your next post. I also use my trips and holidays to carry out research for my books. Eating and drinking also counts as research! The gym – not so much. Looks like you had the perfect holiday for you.

I couldn’t agree more on your thoughts about travel. It indeed is a great escape to leave the regular hum drum of our daily lives and rejuvenate ourselves with a quick road trip on weekend, or a long beach vacation in summers. Being a travel blogger myself, I always crusade as to how travel can do the most amazing things to one’s personality.

You are so right. Travel is great for the end, body and soul as long as you don’t overspend or overdo it in other ways like alcohol or not being safe.

Traveling is definitely great for the heart and soul. This trip looked like it had the perfect balance of fun and healthy living. The pink champagne looked soooo good. Especially in such a gorgeous setting!
Also…please pass the jamon!
