Amalfi Coast Part 2: Exploring Amalfi and Ravello


This is the second part of my day trip through the Amalfi Coast. Part 1 is here.

Our next stop was the town of Amalfi, which shares the namesake with the coast that we happen to be on. While Positano had this quirky, bougie vibe to the town, Amalfi felt like a more bustling tourist town that was full of life.

Amalfi Coast Part 1: The Picturesque Positano


The next day after we flew into Italy and checked into our hotel in Sorrento, we began our day tour exploring the Amalfi Coast. Right off the bat, I want to say how truly lucky I was to get to go to a place that many people around the world consider to be a bucket-list destination, including myself. The Amalfi Coast is an area that, prior to the tour, I have only read about and explored in Google Maps. I am so happy that I get to share my experience with you, and if you have the means to do so, you should absolutely spend some time on the Amalfi Coast. We went to the towns of Positano, Amalfi, and Ravello. This post will focus on our time in Positano.

Dave The Diver: You Are What You Fish (And Serve)

For my first game of 2024, I chose to play Dave the Diver. I found it difficult to define what kind of game Dave the Diver is. I think Dave the Diver is mainly an adventure game with some RPG elements. You spend your day fishing at a place called the Blue Hole; catching fish for the nearby sushi restaurant and collecting resources for various upgrades. In the night, Dave the Diver turns into a business simulator where you must manage the sushi restaurant, with everything from setting the menu to serving customers on a nightly basis.

Touching Down On Italy (And Europe) For The First Time


Hello again! Now that I have written all my posts about my cruise vacation visiting Croatia, Turkey, and Greece, it is time for me to talk about the week before the cruise trip, with my time in Italy. I have had great difficulty on how I will be structuring these Italy blog posts. I will have dedicated posts on certain places (such as the Amalfi Coast, Capri, etc.) as well as certain attractions (such as the Colosseum, Vatican City, etc.). The problem I am having is how I want to talk about my general thoughts about the country. Should I have a dedicated post just for this? Should I sprinkle these thoughts within all the other Italy posts? There is no true answer for me.

My Top 10 Games I Played in 2023

I played so many video games in 2023 that I can actually write a top-10 list on my best games I played in 2023. Just a reminder, this is NOT my top-10 list on games released in 2023, but rather my top-10 games I played in 2023. Some of these games came out before 2023 (though most of these games are from 2023).
