Positano is a cliffside resort town on Italy's Amalfi Coast, renowned for its pastel-colored buildings cascading toward the Tyrrhenian Sea. Originally a prominent medieval port and a quiet fishing village, it became an upscale international tourist destination following widespread acclaim in the 1950s. I find it very charming and an enjoyable place to visit. And remember, because of where it is situated, be sure to take comfortable flat shoes. Some buses will take you up and down the hill, but you will still find yourself going up and down steps as you walk around town. There is a beautiful church, but keep in mind that they take their religious beliefs seriously. If you are a woman, you cannot enter without a veil on your head. Be sure to carry a scarf with you. It is very fashionable to wear a silky scarf around your neck, around your hat, or even tied to your purse. Also, they are famous for the red coral that is found in their waters. It is reasonably priced while you are there, but it's very hard to find and very pricey once you leave there. The beach is beautiful, but it is made up of rocks, not sand. So be sure to wear sandals or shoes as you walk along the beach. The Amalfi Coast is known as the Italian Riviera, and the vacation spot of the rich and famous. It is very common to see huge yachts moored on the seaside. As we sat there enjoying the fresh seafood, I found it enjoyable to watch the rich and famous come to shore. They dressed casually, but with good, expensive taste. The Spanish Girl loves to people-watch.

These are her globally trusted travel essentials—the must‑have staples The Spanish Girl never boards a plane without.

✨ The Ultimate Beach Day Hacks (From Someone Who Lives Here!) ✨ Having spent over half my life living by the beach, I’ve tried every setup, product, and packing trick under the sun. Trust me, I’ve made all the rookie mistakes so you don’t have to! Here is my exact formula for a zero-stress beach day 👇 Step 1: Know Your Squad 👯‍♀️ Before you pack a single thing, ask yourself: Who's coming with me? A quick solo trip only calls for the bare essentials, but rolling up with a group requires a whole different game plan. Tailor your loadout before you start packing! Step 2: Don't Fall into the "Hero" Trap (Story Time! 😅). Don't laugh, but I’ve learned these lessons the hard way: The Scorched Feet Incident: I once forgot to wear sandals. The second my bare feet hit the hot sand, I instantly regretted every life choice and had to do the walk of shame all the way back to the car. 🔥 👣 The Wonder Woman Delusion: I used to think I could haul a chair, a massive tote, and three bags of snacks in one go. Halfway across the sand, my arms gave out. Queue multiple sweaty trips back and forth to the parking lot... and the dread of knowing I had to do it all over again at sunset! 😭 The Effortless Beach Setup 🏖️ Here is how you actually pack like a pro: 🎒 Shoulder-Strap Chairs: Use a super lightweight beach chair with a built-in shoulder strap so your hands stay free. 🧊 All-Terrain Coolers: Invest in an ice chest with heavy-duty sand wheels. 🛒 The Folding Wagon: Unfold a collapsible beach wagon and load up your umbrella, blanket, and totes. Everything that doesn't fit in the cooler goes in the wagon. One trip, zero hassle. My Golden Rule: Lightweight, durable, and multifunctional. 💡 Bonus Pro-Tip: Always claim a spot within sight of the restrooms—especially if you're keeping an eye on kids! Save this post for your next coastal trip, and thank me later! 🌊☀️

For years, I’ve been on a personal journey to reclaim deep, luxurious sleep — testing, refining, and discovering what truly makes a difference. After countless nights and countless trials, I’ve curated the pieces that actually deliver. Consider this your insider look at my tried‑and‑true sleep essentials.

The Lipizzan is a historic European horse breed famous for its white adult coats and high classical dressage performances at Vienna's Spanish Riding School. Developed by the Habsburg monarchy starting in 1580, these compact, muscular horses are born dark and turn white as they age. These horses are absolutely beautiful to see in person. First of all, they are muscular, and what that allows them to do is jump with all four legs. No other horse in the world can do that. While in Sevilla, Spain, we took a day trip to see the Lipizzan. To see them in person is absolutely amazing. They bring the horses into the arena. The men and women wear traditional Spanish attire. The horses march beautifully with a playful bounce. Then they stop in front of the booth of the King and Queen of Spain. They bow to the King and Queen out of respect before performing.
