If you’re looking for a combination of VIP’s feeling and wildness, Capri is definitely the place to go-to!
As always ( I mean 8 times out of 10) I discover places for business purposes.
Working a lot, and in the destination wedding industry, is giving me the opportunity to travel a lot (when covid is not opposing- and that won’t last anymore). My husband have his family coming from Procida, the little sister island of Capri, but we never came here before I had to plan Bea & Jacky’s wedding here.
I can say that I have been blown away by the profound sense of genuine hospitality here.
Here is my first travelogue dedicated to Capri, in a very “something blue” mood.
In order to help and guide you, you can discover the name of where I shot the photos while hovering the photo itself. You’ll become a real Capri insider !
The following photos had been taken with my iPhone during my second trip there while planning a destination wedding for clients from Hong-Kong last year.
