Our Italian town of Sacile has quickly become one Our Italian town of Sacile has quickly become one of my favorite places in the world. 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Gorgeous architecture and beautiful riverside views. Great restaurants, a weekly market, and a train station connecting us to anywhere. Best of all? All the classic small-town Italian charm you'd hope for!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
After almost two years here, I figured it was time to put together a guide to town! If you're PCSing to Aviano AB and want the inside scoop, I've got you covered.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I've got all the best restaurants, including the always-important question of where to find the best gelato!!

I GOT THE SHOT!!! . Today I got round one of the I GOT THE SHOT!!! 
.
Today I got round one of the vaccine!!! 🙌🙌🙌 I’m overjoyed. I sat in the car and cried happy tears afterwards.
.
I feel hopeful in a way I haven’t in months. 
.
I know this doesn’t change my immediate circumstances. red level lockdown likely for the rest of the month, and Italy is still barely made a dent in its vaccine distribution.
.
But it’s a step in the right direction. For travel, yes of course! I CANNOT WAIT and am already making lists of where vaccinated folks can go.
.
But also a step in the direction of seeing friends, or going out to eat, or any of the small everyday moments I tend to take for granted.
.
So celebrating today even if it’s prosecco solo on the couch!

When you travel, do you like to try the local deli When you travel, do you like to try the local delicacies??? Italy has a ton of local foods, even down to a specific cheese in each town. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
So when we headed to Cividale we ordered all the local specialties at Antica Leon D'oro.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
One of their signature dishes, frico, has become a favorite since moving to Friuli Venezia. A favorite antipasto? Snails!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I've tried snails a few times, but never in Italy. The big question: were they were worth it? Check out the latest in bio!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

WHAT'S KEEPING ME SANE RIGHT NOW
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
In this time of weirdness, we're all grasping at straws. 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
For mental health.
For normalcy (that word has lost all meaning).
For conversations not revolving around lockdown or COVID or vaccines or politics. 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
So here's what's been working for me lately:
⭐️ Be ruthless about letting go of what doesn't serve [where you can]. If something is draining you, drop that sucker! Letting go of the unattainable standards we set for yourselves is smart in the best of times... and this certainly isn't ideal life circumstances. 
⭐️ Chipping away at projects I keep putting off. One of my favorites is making photo albums, but what's that thing that you always wish you'd get to? 
⭐️ Every day, I try to finish something. Bonus points if it's a random chore you never do but only takes 15 minutes. This has the double impact of giving me one thing I for sure accomplished that day, AND suddenly I've done those random chores like cleaning my makeup brushes.
⭐️ If I fight for one thing I don't want to do, it's exercise. I'm finally old enough to see the direct effect of sweat on my mental and physical health.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
That's it. Nothing too complicated. Goodness knows I can't handle complicated right now. 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
What's keeping you sane right now? Let me know, I'll take all the ideas I can get!!

A favorite from Aviano AB lately has been Cividale del Friuli. In centuries past, the city has been part of at least four countries, and the architecture and food options reflect all the deliciousness of that! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

With lockdown extended and the hubs on a work trip With lockdown extended and the hubs on a work trip, I'm treating the next bit of time as a Make It Happen season. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I'm stuck at home with minimal responsibilities, so may as well make it work for me instead of dreading it! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
That means I'm partly going to get it done. Finishing projects, retaking control of some part of my life that I've let languish over the past year, and do some hardcore cleaning. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
It also means self-care like woah. Face masks and Netflix, yes, but also real restorative rest. Not bothering with the things that don't actually serve. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
It's hard not to get tangled in the frustrations and hard parts of right now. So I'm trying to do what I can now so when I can get back to travel (even locally!), I'm ready. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

One more thought on traveling somewhere random: ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Traveling somewhere random is also crazy rewarding with foreign travel. Spending a few days in a random city, off the normal tourist track, has always been so rewarding for me. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Over a year ago, I spent a few days in Constanta, Romania. It's a fading resort town that doesn't target American tourists, and I went in the middle of winter. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The thing I loved about it was that I had absolutely no agenda! I visited the local mosques, churches, and synagogues. I soaked up the architecture and walked along the old school promenade like it was a century ago. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The lack of major must-see spots meant I wandered aimlessly for hours. I soaked up more of what was around me because that was the whole point! I never got museum fatigue because my only goal was to see the city.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
It was amazing! It reminded me that these types of experiences are just as unforgettable as the first time I saw the Sistine Chapel. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
What's a random place you want to visit??⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Traveling to somewhere random is possible no matte Traveling to somewhere random is possible no matter where you live! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

I know that my Instagram is full of shots of quaint Italian villages. It's easy to idealize traveling to random spots when they're all centuries old. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

If you're anything like me, you're dreaming of all If you're anything like me, you're dreaming of all the spots we want to go when we travel again. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
And while big destinations are still very much on my bucket list, this season of staying at home has reminded me how much it's worth traveling to random places. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Heading to random places challenges us to pay attention to what's around. To soak up the small things instead of only seeing the flash. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Whether it's a random nature preserve or a tiny town, there's something to be said for exploring off the beaten path. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
