During our trip to the Southern Albanian Coast, we chose to stay at the Euro Hotel in Ksamil. We had a wonderful stay and would happily recommend it to anyone visiting the area.


The staff was exceptionally friendly, welcoming, and helpful throughout our stay. They went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable and gave us great recommendations every day for beaches, restaurants, and things to see and do in the area. Their local knowledge really made our stay even better, and they made some reservations on our behalf, which made our life easier.


The rooms are new, modern, clean, and very comfortable, and one of our favorite features was that every room has a sea view. Waking up to that view each morning was definitely a highlight! And the breakfast deserves a special mention—it was honestly one of the best hotel breakfasts we’ve had. There was a great variety of fresh and delicious options, and everything was beautifully prepared.



The location is also excellent. It’s an easy walk into the center of Ksamil along the beach, but it’s far enough away from the busiest beach clubs that you don’t have to deal with all the crowds and noise at night. It gave us the perfect balance of convenience and peace. The beach directly near the hotel isn’t the best in Ksamil, but that really wasn’t an issue for us. There are several beautiful, newer beach clubs within about a 10-minute walk, with comfortable sunbeds, reasonable prices, and great food options. The hotel also offered free parking, which is convenient since it is located in a public beach area.


Overall, Euro Hotel was a fantastic choice for our stay. Great rooms, an amazing breakfast, a convenient location, and—most importantly—wonderful staff who genuinely cared about making our stay enjoyable. We would definitely stay here again when returning to Ksamil!

About Me

Life has taken me on quite the journey—from growing up in the same house, attending the same school, and living in the same city of Bogotá, Colombia for 18 years, to leaping into the unknown by moving abroad for college. That bold decision pushed me far beyond my comfort zone: I had to learn a new language, adapt to a different culture, and build a new life from scratch.

It was during college that I met my husband. After six years of dating, we got married—and the very next day, he joined the U.S. Air Force. That marked another major shift in my life. With his military career, we began moving every few years to new places—often not by choice, but always with an open heart.

We lived in four different U.S. states before receiving an overseas assignment in 2015 to Spain. What was meant to be a two-year stay quickly turned into a life-changing adventure: seven years in Spain, followed by six more in Italy. Along the way, I picked up a third language, fell deeper in love with European culture, and embraced every opportunity to explore new corners of the world.

To date, I’ve lived in four countries—Colombia, the United States, Spain, and Italy—and visited over 40. Through it all, I’ve discovered a deep love for travel, for learning from other cultures, and for seeing the world through my children’s eyes. We have two little adventurers who are just as curious and eager to explore as we are.

This blog is a space to share our journey—especially what it’s like to live and travel in Europe as a military family. Whether you're planning your next big trip, relocating overseas, or simply dreaming of faraway places, I hope you’ll find inspiration, insight, and encouragement here.

Feel free to reach out with questions or just to say hello—I’d love to connect with you!
