Few cities rival Mexico City when it comes to shopping that feels both deeply rooted in tradition and effortlessly cosmopolitan. Beyond its bustling avenues and storied landmarks lies a world of boutiques and ateliers that offer more than just beautiful objects. They marry artistry with refinement, each offering treasures that feel as timeless as they are distinctive.
Mexico City is a destination that could easily fill weeks of exploring. Take it from me, it's my second time visiting, and my list of places to visit is now longer than when I initially departed for my trip.
Every city has that one restaurant that people whisper about with a mix of reverence and urgency. It’s on every listicle and when brought up in conversation, “You have to go” is usually the general response. In Mexico City, that place is Máximo Bistrot. Tucked into a leafy corner of Roma Norte, it’s equal parts refined dining room and neighborhood favorite, and somehow manages to feel both important and unpretentious simultaneously.
Brussels is such a lovely city rich with history, gorgeous architecture and fabulous beer. But if you are itching to explore, Bruges is just a short train ride away. Bruges is capital and the largest city of the province of West Flanders. Trust me, when you arrive in Bruges you will notice the Flemish influence. The street names alone are tongue twisters having more consonants than most English words.
