A Weekend in San Juan, Puerto Rico

April 28 – May 2, 2016:

This weekend in San Juan, Puerto Rico was an amazing time and I can’t wait to go back.  Honestly, going back to Puerto Rico is higher on my future travel list than going somewhere new.  The beaches, the food, the people, the colors, the history, the diversity!  If you haven’t already, you really must go.  It’s a world of it’s own and if you’re lucky enough to live in the States, you don’t even need a passport to see it.

Condado, Old San Juan, and Cerro Gordo Beach

Serafina Restaurant, Condado, PR. The best place to get italian on the island.
