In the garden of Eden...or Verona. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ This is the Giardino Giusti, a peaceful oasis from all the tourists in Verona. Seriously, everyone was jammed into Juliet’s balcony, which was super lame, and yet this gorgeous spot was infinitely better. Go figure! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ If only our yard could be this nice...but that’s a project for next year. 🌳🌹 This was also one of my only dresses I could still wear while pregnant! 😝 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ——————————————————————— #italytrip #travelitaly #italiabella #italy_vacations #topitalyphoto #italyinsider #italy_ig #volgoitalia #magicaitalia #italiait #girlsmeetglobe #citizenfemme #sheisnotlost #womenwhoexplore #girlsborntotravel #shetravels #femaletravelbloggers #globelletravels #girlsthatwander #travelgirls #verona #veronaitaly

If you were going to name your child after your favorite literary character, what would he/she be called? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ When people ask me if I have a name picked out, and I say Alice, many people say, “like in Wonderland?” Yup, exactly! My daughter is named after my favorite literary character, so I do not mind the association. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I’ve loved Alice since I was a little girl. She wasn’t a princess. She was just an imaginative, curious, independent little girl who went off exploring on her own. One could say, I’ve done the same, and hopefully so will my Alice! 💜👧🏻 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ————————————————————————— #italytrip #travelitaly #italiabella #italy_vacations #topitalyphoto #italyinsider #italy_ig #volgoitalia #magicaitalia #italiait #lakegarda #lagodigarda #rivadelgarda #instagarda #visitlagodigarda #girlsmeetglobe #citizenfemme #sheisnotlost #womenwhoexplore #girlsborntotravel #shetravels #femaletravelbloggers #globelletravels #girlsthatwander #travelgirls #sirmione

What are the traditions or old wives tales about how to induce labor in your country? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ This is me by the water in Stockholm 11 weeks ago. Now I’m at term and going to lose my mind if this baby doesn’t come soon. 😝 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Some people believe spicy food helps. I hate spicy food, have no tolerance for it, and actually peppers can make my stomach quite bad. But am I planning to eat some spicy food tomorrow? Yes, yes I am. 😂 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ My midwife doesn’t want me to walk too much and exhaust myself before labor, so tomorrow I’m going to get a massage and try to relax. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Alice, just come on out, my love! We are waiting for you. 👶🏻 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ——————————————————————— ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #stockholm #sthlm #stockholm_insta #visitstockholm #stockholmsweden #lovesweden #exploresweden #girlsmeetglobe #citizenfemme #sheisnotlost #womenwhoexplore #girlsborntotravel #shetravels #femaletravelbloggers #globelletravels #girlsthatwander #travelgirls #gamlastan #preggers #momtobe

I love art and culture, so of course Wynwood is a must whenever I go back to my hometown. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ You have to sacrifice when you become a parent, but that already happens before the baby even comes. Last night was Oslo’s Culture Night, which I usually go to every year. All the museums in town are open and free at night. There are lots of cool events and special things you don’t normally get to do. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ But this year, I couldn’t go because I’m super pregnant, don’t have the energy, and just waiting for my daughter to come. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ It’s the same with travel. Normally, I’m gone quite a lot of the summer break since I have 7 weeks off, but this year we barely went anywhere because I was too pregnant (well, and because we bought a townhouse to have more room for the babe). ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I know it will be worth it when she’s in my arms, and this is only the beginning of the sacrifices that will come. However, I do intend to find ways of continuing to travel and live my life, not despite my daughter, but with her. 💜 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ——————————————————————— #lovefl #roamflorida #pureflorida #floridalife #staysaltyflorida #visitflorida #visitmiami #wynwoodwalls #wynwood #streetart #girlsmeetglobe #citizenfemme #sheisnotlost #womenwhoexplore #girlsborntotravel #shetravels #femaletravelbloggers #globelletravels #girlsthatwander #travelgirls #glt

It’s Friday the 13th! Are you superstitious? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I’m not convinced that particularly bad things happen on this day or that the number 13 is unlucky. I often pick seats on the plane in row 13 because others don’t pick it and I get more room! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I also think it’s ridiculous when hotels skip the number 13. The 14th floor is really the 13th. You’re not fooling anyone! 😂 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ In China, the number 4 is bad luck because the name of it is similar to the word for death. ☠️ I learned this when I was staying at the hotel in Kuala Lumpur (the one with the pool from the other day) because in the elevator, they skipped the number 4! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I read that in some Spanish and Greek cultures it’s Tuesday the 13th that’s bad luck, and that Italians consider Friday the 17th bad luck! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ If all these days were bad luck, that would add a lot more bad days to the calendar. 😬 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Good and bad things can happen on any day, so I’m not going to worry about it too much! Let me know if something terrible does happen to you today. 😬 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ —————————————————————— #montenegro_dreamers #montenegro🇲🇪 #montenegrophoto #visitmontenegro #instamontenegro #gomontenegro #montenegrowildbeauty #mojacrnagora #balkans #adriatic #waytomontenegro #girlsmeetglobe #citizenfemme #sheisnotlost #womenwhoexplore #girlsborntotravel #shetravels #femaletravelbloggers #globelletravels #girlsthatwander #travelgirls #kotor #perast #kotorbay

Casually hanging out in the ruins of a Roman Villa at Lake Garda. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ How great this place must’ve been in its prime. We are big fans of ruins. I love history and thinking about what places used to be like. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I can’t wait to show Alice the world and teach her all about history, language, art, and culture! 💜 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Now she just needs to get her butt out here. 😂 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ———————————————————————— #italytrip #travelitaly #italiabella #italy_vacations #topitalyphoto #italyinsider #italy_ig #volgoitalia #magicaitalia #italiait #lakegarda #lagodigarda #rivadelgarda #instagarda #visitlagodigarda #girlsmeetglobe #citizenfemme #sheisnotlost #womenwhoexplore #girlsborntotravel #shetravels #femaletravelbloggers #globelletravels #girlsthatwander #travelgirls #sirmione
