1. We are flying into Rome and have a 1.5 hour layover until Naples. I've heard as long as the flight is under a single ticket you will not be going through customs until you reach your end destination. Is 1.5 hours enough to get t... Read More

Bonjour à tous,
i have been looking into international shipping options from Paris to New York and am a bit overwhelmed. I’m betting that any number of Fodorites have experience with this, so I’m hoping for some advice.
i need to ship about fifteen or twenty tins of tea altogether, too much for me to lug around, esp since Paris is just the fi... Read More

Today I was musing if I shall ever finally find MY face country. You know--a place where you look around and find people who look more like you than not. My other family members have had that happen; I have not.

Hopefully, the third time would be the charm.

We did our research and amassed a ton of notes about sites, visiting hours, hikes and walks, driving routes, wine and port, food and restaurants, you name it. We were well-prepared for our departure on March 28, 2020. Well, you don’t have to guess how that turned out!
