Summary
This entire trip to Europe started with one reason: my friend Hannah, who I met on the Disney College Program back in 2010, was getting married. In a castle. On Lake Garda. In Italy. She said she was only inviting people she knew would show up. I showed up. In this episode I am talking about: Getting from Verona to Malcesine by private transfer — the beautiful drive, the narrow roads, and why you want someone else behind the wheel Last-minute shopping in Verona: Scout, OVS, and a pair of Birkenstocks I am pretty sure do not exist in the US Arriving in Malcesine and why it immediately felt like a fairy tale The Hugo spritz — what it is, why it is better than Aperol, and why I now have a bottle of St-Germain at home The castle wedding: a bilingual ceremony on a cliff above the lake, a 30-minute walk along the water to the reception, and a bride and groom who arrived by boat The best lasagna I ate in three weeks in Italy Being the only Americans at a very international wedding Getting up early and finding a grapevine terrace before the tour groups arrived — the quiet morning version of Malcesine is a completely different place Next episode: the Disney Cruise Line Greek Isles itinerary — Mykonos, Corfu, Valletta, a sea day with an active volcano, and a septum piercing somewhere in the Aegean. Find me across all socials and at kaylareneetravel.com — travel planning, blog posts on every destination from this trip, and TikTok videos of that harbor view that people genuinely cannot stop watching. Until next time — let's just go.
