In this fun and wanderlust-fueled episode, I'm unveiling My Ultimate Europe Wish List—a curated collection of the top places I most want to visit in Europe, organized by category.
From dreamy castles to vibrant cities, secluded islands to breathtaking mountain ranges, this list is packed with destinations that stir the soul and spark the imagination.
You’ll hear why I’m drawn to the soaring peaks of the Swiss Alps, the café culture of Vienna and the sun-drenched charm of Provence.
I’ll also share the pull of Finland’s forests and saunas, plus some hidden small towns, spiritual sites and nature parks that make me want to ditch my laptop and wander.
🧳 Whether you're planning your own European adventure or just love to dream about travel, this episode will give you serious inspiration—and maybe a few surprises!
